family matters
lots of updating needs to happen, but i just came across this little gem in a chat history from august 2006. it deserves better:
so anyway, i just found out this past weekened that at the family reunion
my grandpa had gathered everyone together for a toast or program of some sort
and said something about it being his 50th anniversary
a few of my aunts and uncles corrected him, whispering “Sixtieth!”
and he got mad and said that he had said 60th
and everyone let it go, except him.
and he decided to put it to a VOTE
and everyone voted that he had said 50th, and not 60th
and he got mad
and left
how BIZARRE.

poor grandpa! i read something today that when people get older their memory goes (we already knew that) but also that they get a little more impulsive…maybe that is what happened.
