One time when I was a teenager, my dad announced that we were all going out for pizza. Hooray, right? Well, right as we got settled in to our booth, eagerly awaiting cheesy, pepperoni, greasy goodness … who do we behold walking in to join our table? SURPRISE, it’s Monsignor REDACTED from the local Catholic Church!

ISN’T THAT GREAT, KIDS? ISN’T IT!?!

Anyways. May’s Long Story Short is all about those surprise personalities who somehow make it into our life. Who knows. Maybe you were the surprise guest. In any case, bring your stories, bring your courage, and let’s do this.
