You try further explanations but you begin to lose everyone’s attention as the main dishes for tonights dinner starts coming out of the oven and everyone starts loading up their plates with food.

You sit down and somehow, your family still seems interested in what you’re researching despite your unsuccessful attempt before the dinner. At least unsuccessful to your standards.

“So tell me again how you’re adding up waves? what is this even for?” Your dad asks. “Does it have anything to do with the cell phone towers?”

What do you do?

Take out your Thesis draft and your journal paper

Grab your computer and pull up some slides

Start diagraming in your mashed potatoes

Give up and eat some turkey
