MeandMarj: Yup!

Alison: Are you glad you finished?
Grandmother: Yup! Because it's upstairs in my drawer and I can go upstairs and show it to you. Do you have a degree?
Alison: Yes, I do. I have 3.
Grandmother: What? Really?
Alison: Yes, I do!
Grandmother: You are such a smarty!

MeandMarj: What was I?

Grandmother: You weren't in a sorority?
Alison: I was! Chi Omega - go Chi O! Chi Omega - go Chi O!
Grandmother: What was I?
Alison: Kappa Kappa Gamma.
Grandmother: I didn't join until I was at UCLA. There was no reason to at Duke. I needed a place to live at UCLA.
Alison: Oh, Grandmother.
Grandmother: It's true!
Alison: Did a lot of women go to college then?
Grandmother: Oh yeah...at Duke, they had a woman's campus and a men's campus.
Alison: Did you see the men?
Grandmother: Oh sure, we use to date them and everything else, but they were on separate campuses.
Alison: Did you keep up with your Kappa sisters from UCLA?
Grandmother: No, because I have my degree from Boston University. I started in Duke, then I transferred. My father went to the Pacific Fleet out of Long Beach California, so I transferred out there. He was out there for 2 years and then he transferred back to the east coast. I never thought I'd get out of school. I was determined. I was a very determined person. I have my degree right upstairs in my drawer. I was determined.
Alison: Why were you so determined?
Grandmother: I just was. I was a very determined person when it came to getting my degree.

MeandMarj: Just don't go.

Alison: I don't want to go to work tomorrow.
Grandmother: Don't go.
Alison: Then what?
Grandmother: You get fired.
Alison: And then what do I do?
Grandmother: Come home.

MeandMarj: We always shared our birthday!

Alison: What theme should I have for my birthday party this year?
Grandmother: Priscilla and I always shared a birthday. Mother would throw the party in between our birthdays. Priscilla's birthday is March 27 and mine is March 31.
Alison: What would you have at the party?
Grandmother: We would always have a white cake with yellow candles.
Alison: What else?
Grandmother: Well, that was about it...as I recall.

MeandMarj: Work? No, really?

Alison: I'm glad to be home!
Grandmother: I'm glad you feel you are at home. What made you decide to come up this way?
Alison: Well, I have a job at Marriott. I'm going to work tomorrow.
Grandmother: Work? No, really?
Alison: Yes, I have to go to work tomorrow.
Grandmother: You really do?
Alison: Yes. Can I stay here for awhile?
Grandmother: You can stay as long as you like.

MeandMarj: I was looking for my table and chairs!

Alison: Look at the nice "Thank You" note my friend wrote me.
Grandmother: I was looking at this and it says, "Thank you for the patio table and chairs," and I looked outside and didn't see my patio table and chairs and thought you gave her mine.
Alison: Oh, Grandmother - I wouldn't do that! Your table and chairs are being repaired.
Grandmother: Oh, okay... I didn't know what to think!

MeandMarj: The husband makes the money - you spend the money!

Alison: But when you are married, you have to share everything!
Grandmother: Like?
Alison: Like your money.
Grandmother: The husband makes the money - you spend the money!
