Why Grandparents KICK ASS!
Spent the weekend at my grandparent's camp and while vegging out on the couch watching movies with the Nana and washing the car with the Papa, I came up with some reasons why Grandparents Kick fuckin' ass. Here are the top Ten!
10.) Free access to junk food and soda, AND you can eat it in the living room
9.) 250 channels of digital goodness on the TV
8.) Free car wash, interior cleaning and wax, not to mention hands on teaching by the best of the best car washers in town
7.) Learning family secrets from reading 100 year old letters.
6.) First pick of lovely jewelry, just 'cause while you're the oldest grandchild, you're the only one who helps out.
5.) Dinner at a chinese resturant where your Nana breaks into giggles when she adds, "in bed" to the end of the fortune cookie
4.) Hearing stories about their escapades in Las Vegas, Florida and New Orleans. (My personal favorite: their dinner in a transvestite strip club in New Orleans and Papa didn't realize it until he was offered a lap dance by a 6 foot blonde with a frog in her throat)
3.) Going to see "Stepford Wives" and hearing your nana proclaim "Those boys make such a cute couple. They would make beautiful babies" about the gay couple in Stepford.
2.) Watching S7 reruns of Buffy with Nana and Papa and listening to them wonder when Xander will realize that Andrew is in love with him
and the Number One reason Grandparents kick ass:
1.) The hugs and kisses I get for "sacrificing" my weekend to sleep over with them. Priceless.
