Some chick I know told me she’s about to become a grandmother. What makes this news interesting to me is that this particular gal is four months younger than I. My oldest kid still can’t open a can of Spaghettios by himself. Her oldest is banging hotties and knocking them up. My youngest kid will be only four years older than her grandkid.

Even more, she said she is the last of her friends around her age who is not a grandmother. And that they are so happy to include her into their club. They’re apparently being sincere too and not acting in a “ha ha, your barely scraped through high school kid now working a low wage retail job is royally f-u-c-k-e-d just like our kids are” kind of way.

I don’t even know what to think about all this, but there’s certainly an entirely different mindset regarding parenthood and grandparenthood depending on which side of the tracks you’re on, that’s for sure.
