MeandMarj: He's not tied up with you!

Grandmother: Where's Steve?
Alison: He's in New York city tonight with a friend.
Grandmother: What kind of friend? Male or female?
Alison: Grandmother, if he was with a female friend, we would have a problem!
Grandmother: Why? He's not tied up with you!
Alison: That's true, but if he's with other females, then I should be spending time with other males!
Grandmother: Well...

MeandMarj: All they can do is run!

While watching the World Ironman Championships...

Grandmother: These stupid women! They probably can't even make a dress or sew a hem! All they can do is run!
Alison: Grandmother, this is the greatest physical challenge they will ever undertake!
Grandmother: So?

MeandMarj: What do rabbits like?

Louise's rabbit is named, "Beatrice"...

Alison: What else can we get Beatrice for Christmas?

Alison: Well, what do rabbits like?

Alison: Ha! Should we get another rabbit?

MeandMarj: July 1984!


MeandMarj: I don't know, they just liked me!

Alison: What is this stack of letters? Oh my! A love letter!?! "Darling, I miss you so much. I'm staring at your beautiful picture but not as beautiful as you, this awful cardboard thing! At least we are only 2500 miles apart and not 3000. I love you dearly!"
Grandmother: Not a bad love letter, eh?
Alison: This is fabulous! One beau, two beau, three beaus! How many beaus did you have?!?


Grandmother: I had a few...
Alison: How did you get these guys to fall in love with you?
Grandmother: I don't know, they just liked me!

MeandMarj: I'm coming! I'm coming!

Alison: Good Morning! It's a beautiful day! Time for breakfast!
Grandmother: Okay.
Alison: Grandmother, it doesn't sound like you are getting up.
Grandmother: Nope.
Alison: Don't you want breakfast?
Grandmother: Alright, I'm coming! I'm coming!

MeandMarj: Eat your breakfast!

Alison: Grandmother, this is so exciting! There is an article about Revolution Growth! And I used to work for Exclusive Resorts, another company Steve Case invested in!

As I start reading the article out loud...

Grandmother: You better eat your breakfast.
Alison: Oh! But don't you find this fascinating? This wonderful opportunity for entrepreneurial growth in the DC area?
Grandmother: Nope. Eat your breakfast!
