The village idiot of Las Vegas talks relationship with his 98 year old grandmother..

What a treat! I chatted with my 98 year old grandmother in Kansas today. Don't let the age fool you. She's still sharp as a tack. Whenever I talk with her? I always try to explain to her what Las Vegas is like...(The last time she was in Las Vegas? Bugsey Siegel was running the town)..Today I decided to read a post from my blog to her. After the blog, I asked her what she thought of it. She then asked me this.."Robbie, is the girl your talking about your new girlfriend?" I smiled and said.."Grandma I wish that girl was my new girlfriend, but she is way out of my league." "What do you mean she is out of your league. I don't understand."

Understandably, Grandma Astle is a little behind the times (Her and grandpa Astle were married for 72 years) so I had to explain to her how the relationship game is played in Las Vegas.. "Grandma, you should have seen this girl..I'm telling you she was the most phenomenal looking women I've ever seen. Believe me, I would love to call her my new girlfriend. The reality of the matter Grandma? She's caviar and I'm bologna in the relationship chain. All these 10's running around Las Vegas cost money that I don't have. It's just how things work:(" I could tell that I had Grandma's ear when she asked me this.."Robbie how many women are there in Las Vegas? You make it look like a stampede when you describe it." My answer "Stampede is an understatement Grandma." She then laughs and says.."You surely can find one women out in Vegas who doesn't care about the money part of things? To be your girlfriend."

It's never a good idea to tell your grandmother an untruth, she will always no. So I took a moment or two to re-evaluate my opinion on the women in Las Vegas. As much as I would have loved to tell her different? My answer was still the same, even to grandma.."Grandma, I wish it was different, but the poor man misses out on the ladies in Las Vegas. Maybe one of these days one of them will feel sorry for me, but realistically? I doubt it." Grandma's response? "I suppose so, or maybe you should lower your standards?"

I like to end every post of mine with a thought I'm having..Call it the village idiot thought of the day. "My father and I both agree that Grandma will live to be a 100. That would make her the first Astle centenarian on record. Grandma I love you:)"
