Just call me NANA???

OK - so I am not the easily offended type... HOWEVER... Tonight we were over at one of Jeremy's friends from work. He lives in this large apartment complex with a beautiful pool. We had eaten a little pizza and were swimming and hanging out when this 50-something man comes over to me and starts talking. I was holding Owen and he dared to ask me if I was Owen's GRANDMA!!!!!!!!! Are you KIDDING ME??? I was soooo floored by the comment - that I could barely respond. My only solace is that he was holding a Budweiser and perhaps the beer goggles were a little foggy!!! Either that or I am in desperate need of some creams and/or surgical procedures:)

OH MY GOSH!!!!!!!!!!!! I seriously can't stop laughing. In all seriousness though...it really must have been the beer goggles and he was probably hoping you were a single granny so he could hit on you!! I think you've come full circle from the days people would ask mom if she was your grandma. I guess I should tell my kids to start calling you Granny instead of Nanny. HA HA HA

I agree w/ Mag's comments!! Too funny. Strange opening line for trying to hit on you! He must be seriously out of practice! What did you say?

hey old lady! that is the worst thing i have ever heard. i feel that we have a pretty honest relationship and i would of given you those very creams for your b-day if i thought that they were needed. on a less funny note though-you are making me jealous with all your fun in utah. we will be there soon though. i forgot about visiting noel and jeff will have three days of meetings so can i call you to get her digits? (in young people talk that means phone number). or email me otisleejn@yahoo.com

I totally agree with Maggie. I guess you can think positive with this one. If Jeremy ever kicked the bucket, at least an old rich man could be attracted to you and you could live happily ever after, RICH:)

The man seriously needed some lasik surgery. Don't feel bad, a lady in our ward once thought my husband, Matt, was my son. I choose to believe that it is because he acts immature.

Oh Mary, it really must have been the beer! Its bad enough that I get called Ma'am at work al day long... though I can not imagine being called grandma! But you did make me laugh tonight!

Heather said...

Are you kidding?! That guy must have had more than just beer to drink! I'm thinking something a little harder that made him totally out of his mind! That's the only way he could mistake a hottie like you for a granny!
