#oh gran

[freedomaboveallelse]

Everytime I visit my grandma, I can see she's not getting any better and she keeps forgetting my name. My aunt has to remind her like "Saoirse, SER-SHUH. Not Sasha or Sabrina." Gran will be all "Ser-sha? What kind of a name is that?"

My gran keeps talking about how some jobs are “womanly arts” - making beds, knitting, ironing, etc., and my feminist aunt is just laughing and saying, “you are in the room with the three people you most should not say that around. You should probably stop while you’re behind.”

And gran tried to say something more on it, so my aunt just said loudly over her, “Well, you know, she’s eighty.” and my gran stopped talking to gasp loudly, affronted.

I can’t stop laughing. Oh gran.

My gran does his thing that when she's not really interested in something but wants the person to think she is she'll like try and finish their sentence and it is honestly the most annoying thing in the whole world I can't deal with it help

Gran's tv only has two stations, and nothing was on so we had to watch some of her (recorded) videos, which include Ben Hur, La Grande Vadrouille, Leo en Gaston (for the Flemish among us she meant Gaston & Leo), all of the Home Alone films, Mr. Bean,  Night at the Museum (she'd written "WITH BEN STILLER" on the video cassette, apparently she likes him?). Last night was the best. We watched a video with the following written on the cassette.

Ghost

The Naked Gun

"Film"

This mysterious film turned out to be "Because I Said So", which got pretty awkward during the over the top (at least for my gran) sex scenes. I got to spend the entire film not trying to show my instant blatant crush on Gabriel Macht.
