I cried, just now. I really cried.
You know (actually, you don't) -- I remember being about six or seven, standing at the fence with my Grandpa talking to Mrs. Chivera next door. She asked me, offhand-like, if I was in town to see my grandparents. "Nah," I tell her. "I'm just here to see my Grandma. I hate my Grandpa."
Either Grandpa or Mrs. Chivera didn't have much of a sense of humor, and later in the day the old man marched me over to explain my remark to the old woman. Ah, well.
