Adorable emails.

Both my dad and my grandma write the most hilarious and adorable emails. Also, my dad often sends his in all caps because he stares at the keys and doesn't realize his entire email was capitalized until he's ready to hit send. And for some reason the text in his emails is often bright blue. Here is a sampling:

From Dad, talking about me doing Grandma's oral history last weekend:

Hey bring your recorder you'll have gma to yourself take her up in the loft I'll bring you a glass of wine or a beer with lime in it and we'll give her some tea and a piece of banana bread.

From Grandma:

I had a weird experience on Wed., I went to the Hallmark card store to pick up some cards & it was pouring out plus high winds so I zipped up my reversible jacket so I could pop the hood on & when I got in the store I was there for a bit & decided to unzip it but I couldn't get zipper to move down so I moved it up a bit to get it started and it still wouldn't budge so I tried it again, wouldn't budge, now I have it up to my adams apple & I started to panic, there was only one clerk in the store so I waited & peeked to see if she was free and I asked her to PLEASE cut the damn thing off me but she thought she could get it to work, buy this time people in the store started coming to her rescue, I had my head locked into this jacket & I was sooooo embarrassed you have no idea plus the hot flashes were back full score. I knew I couldn't drive home that way, but she was determined and she finally got it to work. Man, I was a nervous wreck and we surely didn't need an audience. I know people thought they could be helpful. Sooo, that's the end of that story & I'm signing off.

From Dad, describing his mother's day present to my mom:

SHE'LL GET A KICK OUT OF YOUR SURPRISE VISIT. i GOT HER A COOL RED RAIN COAT FOR FISHING IN THE RAIN AND A POCKET KNIVE FOR CUTTING LINE, PUTTING NEW LURES ON, ETC. SHE CAN ALSO USE IT TO KILL PEOPLE THAT WOULD ATTACK HER.
