Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

It occurs to me that what I've kind of thought of as "Puppa" among childhood friends must have been Papa, because that's how we said Papa Gino's, the pizza place. So Nana and Papa was pretty common, I guess...

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

Will those anti-stab knives be any good in keeping you from stabbing yourself? if so, I need some.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

One set of grandparents was Grandma and Papa, the other set was Oma and Opa. Papa was supposed to be Grandpa, but when my sister, the oldest grandchild, was a toddler, the best she could make out of Grandma and Grandpa was Gaga and Papa. Grandma insisted on being Grandma, but Papa decided he liked being Papa rather than Grandpa.

My great-grandmother on my dad's side was Tick-Tock Oma. She was supposed to be whatever the German phrase for great-grandmother is, which is something Oma, where that "something" word literally means clock or time or something like that. Trying to explain "clock Oma" to her oldest great-granddaughter as a toddler, she decided on Tick-Tock Oma, which everyone thought was just adorable and kept on using.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Because books.

AWESOME, Glam! And baby's first photo shoot and everything!

My grandparents were the aforementioned Goggie and Mimi (her name is Mildred), and MomMom and PopPop. My great-grandmother was simply Gram Morgan (or just Gram) to pretty much everyone who knew her, related or not.

My kids call my parents Nana and Pappy, and S.'s parents Grandpa and Grandma. For a while Sara couldn't pronounce Grandpa, though, and it was either GeeGaw or PeePaw.

Yay for the Glambaby!

One set was Nana and Boppa and one was Meemaw and Granddaddy.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Emeline calls my mom Grammie.

Lately, I have been calling my mother bitchface.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

I just had Grandma and Grandpa. And I called my mother "Mother". And I still do, I guess, although I don't need to call her by name that often. She said she hated it when children said "mommy, mommy, mommy, mommy".

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Congratulations, Glamcookie!

Happy birthday, askye!

My paternal grandparents were Gramma and Grandad. My maternal grandparents were Mammy and DeeDee. I don't know why, but I'm told I did it.
