Why I have a blog...

There are two goals in mind for this blog:
1.In the style of Allie Brosh (hyperboleandahalf.blogspot.com), I'm hoping that I can simply become famous before I graduate so I never have to decide on a real career.
2. Let's prove the "Six Degrees of Separation" theory right! If you like what I write, tell a friend, and have them tell a friend, until all the friends everywhere have been notified.

Going to Granny's Part 2

In the spirit of equality of love for each of my grandmothers, I've decided to write about a trip I took to Arizona to see my paternal grandmother.

(I had intended to post this yesterday, but my post about superpowers just called.)

We have four days off for Thanksgiving, and it's always the same.

So, one year, I decided to go down to my other grandmother's and visit her. (She's what we call a "snowbird," she lives in Minnesota for the summer and flees the cold for a place with nicer winter weather.)

Anyway, I flew down for a short trip.

Wouldn't you know it, it rained the whole time I was there. In Arizona, the place that gets like...5 days of rain a year.

But whatever, we had plans!

I had never seen the Grand Canyon before, so that was our destination. We drove up and it fortunately cleared up for a bit while we were up there. (I have some epic pictures!)

It was fun! We had dinner with a few of her friends for Thanksgiving and I met some family members for the first time (my parents have cousins...I haven't met many of them).

Mostly I see her in the summer and we have fun. I watch her and my dad duke it out in Scrabble- it's super intense.

...other times I take her to the casino. (Sometimes we go with my other grandma and chill together.)
