my grandma is a bitch

Mar 29th, 2007 by toryssa

I adore my Grams, I’ve blogged about her here and here. Last weekend I saw a whole new side of her. First, I heard her say FUCK. It was in the context of the story she was telling, and it was her repeating something someone else said. But still. It made me giggle, because, hi. My Grams said FUCK!

I had just left her house and on the way home I thought that I would stop at the store and get something for dinner. I would make something nice, and invite her and my Gramps over. I called, and this was the conversation:

Me : Hey, do you guys want to come over for dinner tonight?

Grams : Umm… Uh…tonight?

Me : Yeah. I was thinking that I would stop and get all the stuff, if you guys wanted to.

Grams : Well…. um… what time?

Me : Uh? Five or so? I don’t know, you don’t have to come.

Grams : Well…. I… Ummm… tonight? What’re you making?

Me : Lasange? I don’t know! I haven’t planned it. Just an idea. Really, we can do it another night if you’d rather.

Grams : Well… just hold on…. (away from the phone) Hey Honey? Do you want to go over to [people we are not so fond of]’s house for dinner tonight?

Me : Gramma! It’s me!!

Grams : Toryssa?! Oooh! Of course we’ll come. Did you say five?

For a minute I had such a complex. After though, it made me laugh. A lot. I have never encountered not so polite Grandma before.

    It’s a good thing you got that straightened out before they showed up at the wrong house for dinner!

    Oh man.

    Every time I call my grandmother, I say “Hi Nanny, it’s Jamie” and she yells “I know!” as if I’ve just offended her deeply. But we both know she’d have no idea if I didn’t say it. Especially since I have 3 sisters and we all somehow sound alike on the phone.
