ME: Grammy, have you seen Julius? I can’t find him.
GRAMMY: I sent him outside to play.
ME: By himself?
GRAMMY: No. With the neighborhood kids.
ME: Oh my God! What were you thinking, Grammy? Anything could happen to him out there.
GRAMMY: Yeah. He could make a friend. Grow up a bit. Where are you going?
ME: To look for him. Where else?
GRAMMY: Lord, if anyone in this world needs a shrink, it’s her. (sigh) Okay, Julius, you can come out now.
JULIUS: Did I win?
GRAMMY: You certainly did. Now pull up a chair and see if you can beat an old lady at checkers.
