She had invited Erica’s family, including Erica’s big sister, Missy, and older brother, John, and my uncle Jay and his girlfriend, Harmony. They all showed up right before dinner, because Good News! is on at seven. Dad was serving his championship chili, along with nachos and a specialty drink for the adults in a funny glass shaped like a cactus. Us kids got to drink plain old juice. “To Liz’s debut,” the adults kept saying as they clinked their glasses. Then they laughed like crazy. Harmony was super impressed by Mom’s new job. She’s studying to be a journalist at the same college where Mom and Dad work and where Uncle Jay goes. She’s a big fan, it turns out, of Good News! “Have you gotten to meet Lynn Martinez?” Harmony asked Mom. Lynn Martinez is the main host of Good News! “Yes,” Mom said. “She’s very nice.” “I’ll bet,” Harmony said. “Do you think you could get me an internship there with her this summer?” “Uh,” Mom said, “maybe. I’ll ask.”
