Gramps is creepy, yo!

I heard Mom telling Dad abt sumthing Gramps told her he doez when he an' Iris go 2 the park 2 feed the pigeonz. He, like, oglez yung women who walk by and then imaginez himself B-ing all yung again, xxcept wearing his same old-man clothez, and going out on d8s w/all theze women, like they wd w/a guy wearing dorky old-man clothez. On these d8s in him imagination, he does stuff like buy ice cream 4 the woman, go dancing w/her, or take her 4 a ride in a red convertible, w/the woman's less attractive friend sitting in the backseat.

Gramps thinx it's v. v. funny that the last time this sorta thing happed, Iris was feeding the pigeons, all, "They're so much fun 2 watch, Rn't they!" And he was all "Absolutely!" Only he was ogling a girl @ the time, and that's what he was talkin' abt, not pigeons. And after he'd gone thru a seriez of his sad little d8 fantasies, he was on one where he was taking one of the girls on a nite-time stroll in the park, only he'd like, made her wear a long skirt insteada the teeny short-shorts she had on w/her halter. Iris noticed this particular girl, and she sed, "::tsk::! Honestly! The clothes yung women wear these dayz! They leave absolutely nothing 2 the imagination!" And Gramps sed he had a big ol' grin on his face, cuz these women obvs give him lots 2 imagine about. Ew.

Mom was laffin' when she told this story, and Dad got kinda pissed and asked, "How is it that when yr Dad does these things, it's cute, but if I do, it's a major offense?" And Mom just kinda rolled her eyez an' sed, "Oh, 4 heaven's sake John, Dad is old! Of course it's funny when he does these absurd things!" And she clomped off. And Dad went 2 the choo-choo room.

So the BBQ yesterday was interesting. Zandra wanted 2 talk w/me abt the play her lil bro Charles Wallace is in, where he'z supposta play "Michael, age 9"--yup, my bro'z play. I won't get in2 deets here, since Mike reads here an' sum of what we talked abt is, like, confidential "client-agent" kinda stuff, eh? (Zed is CW's agent.)
