I got an email response from my grandpa today, about my glum, depressive post a bit earlier today (I've got a family blog set up, where they get the updates about school, etc, but not the things I don't want them knowing). Here's his email in response to me:

NOW You're talking like a real alli-cat ! (chuckle)

Hey, kid - we all get into depressed days and conditions -even when you're 75 years old. You have to know this and remember it. It's a physical condition which affects your mental abilities. Anyway, live with it, it's part of adult human life. As a female you are probably more susceptible than a male, mostly because you are mentally more emotional. As for the person you care about the most, guaranteed he/she cares just as much about you, but only time will handle the problem - the time it takes you to mature into a lovely 23/25 year old woman!

I'm just laughing my ass off over this. Sexism and ageism, all in the same email... *roflmao* And gotta love how he puts an age barrier on my maturity...gee, that goes right back to my whole issue with the age of consent laws...

*smiles sweetly at her grandpa* Papa, you obviously haven't spent much time getting to know me. Boy, have you got an eye-opener coming...
