Undercover

I went to synogague on Friday night with my Grandma. I walked up to her when she was talking to another woman, probably in her 80's. "Oh, is this your grandson?" she asks. "No, this is my grandaughter, Andrea", my grandma says. "Oh, how nice your grandson", the woman says. "Do you know my daughter Eva? This is her daughter, Andrea", my grandma says. At this point I interrupt and introduce myself and again say that my name is Andrea. The woman looks back at me says and says, "well it's nice to meet your grandson!".

Then, not five minutes later, a man comes up and starts talking my grandma. He says to me, "Ya know, I have a grandson about your age, maybe a year older. How old are you? 16?" I start to laugh. "14?" he guesses. "Actually, I'm 26" I tell him. "Oh, well my grandson looks just about your age. I guess he looks old for his age too."

I give up.
