My Grandmother is so awesome. Here are some of my favorite moments with her throughout the last week:
1. She saw a new house being built, and wanted to take a "little walky-pooh" through the framework to see if they're building houses with adequate closet space these days.
2. Upon exiting the unfinished house, a bee swooped down near her face. She swatted at it ferociously, and said "Dammit, you bee! Get outta my face!" Then she huffed and snorted for a few steps and muttered to herself, "God damned bees all up in my face *humph*"
3. Upon losing the final hand of Texas Hold'em to her boyfriend, she said "Well, damned your spotted hide! You're mean! Just plain ole' mean....isn't he, Alisha?! That's it, I'm done with you and we're never speaking again! *humph* Well, at least I know you're not cheating 'cause you probably don't even know how *giggle* Damn you slick little fella!"
4. grandma: "Alisha! My lil' ole celly phoney won't dial! I've gotta call Don (the boyfriend) and tell him to watch Wheel of Fortune!"
me: "Is it on?"
grandma: "Oh! Ew! Ahhhh...to be seventy again! Back when I was seventy I could have learned all of these gadgets in a minute! One minute!"
