Grandboy: Ok that’s it. I’m not drinking anything for 1000 days<\/p>\n
Me: O, you’re that angry with me, are you?<\/p>\n
Grandboy: YES! ONE THOUSAND DAYS. And then I’ll be dead. How does that sound?<\/p>\n
Me: Sounds like a sad way to make me sad.<\/p>\n
Grandboy: And THEN what will you do?<\/p>\n
Me: O me? Well, I’ll just go to TheGrandkidStore dot com and order me another grandson.<\/p>\n
Grandboy: Huh?<\/p>\n
Me: Not to worry, I’ll order a replacement just like you. You know, because I like you and all.<\/p>\n
Grandboy: You can’t do that.<\/p>\n
Me: Why not? Where do you think you came from?<\/p>\n
Grandboy: O funny, grandpa. I know I came out of my momma’s belly.<\/p>\n
Me: O THAT’S what she told ya, did she? Clever gal. Now I have to let her know I let the news slip out.<\/p>\n
Grandboy: O.O<\/p>\n
He eventually caught on and played along, saying he’d go to Grandpa dot com to see if there were any on sale this week<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
