My people 45 x 365

The challenge: a year profiling people I have known, using a word count equal to my age. I'm taking weekends off!

Joy

Perhaps in retaliation for all those years her mother dragooned her into meeting so-and-so, who was sure to be her soulmate (or her mother’s idea of her soulmate, i.e. anyone who could claim Chinese heritage), Joy married a New York tango dancer 35 years her senior.

Good for her!

Her mother must have been very disappointed with her matchmaking efforts: one daughter ended up marrying a French-Canadian, another an orthodox Jew, yet another a very white guy (who could however speak fluent Mandarin, so that was her biggest success) and then there was Joy.
