MeandMarj: What town?

Grandmother: What are you screaming about?
Alison: My friend just got asked back for a second interview!
Grandmother: Where?
Alison: For a firm in town.
Grandmother: What town?
Alison: Here! DC! Where we live!

MeandMarj: I can't believe I made it!

Alison: Grandmother, how are you?
Grandmother: Fine. I'm just admiring my foot stool for the 10th time.
Alison: It's beautiful!
Grandmother: I just can't believe I made it!

MeandMarj: That's neat!

Alison: Grandmother, see how the couples' monogram is designed? The wife's initial is small and the last name is large, and then the husband's initial is small. Want to see what mine and Steve's would be?
"aSs"
Grandmother chuckling away...
Grandmother: That's neat!
Alison: Hahaha! I told Steve I couldn't marry him!
Grandmother: Because of that?
Alison: Yes!

MeandMarj: They treat me like I'm someone special.

Alison: How was Lee (the hairdresser) today? Your hair looks great!
Grandmother: Oh, fine. All the ladies in there, they treat me like I'm someone special. I don't know why.
Alison: Well, that's because you are someone special!
Grandmother: Ha!
Looks in the mirror when we get home...
Grandmother: Oh wow, my hair does look great! Not bad for an old lady!

MeandMarj: That's impossible!

Alison: Oh! Langley is on "It's Academic!" My alma mater!
Grandmother: Oh, you know those people?
Alison: No, they are 16; I'm 12 years older. Ugh, Grandmother - I'm 28!
Grandmother: Well, that's impossible!
