A conversation I had with my host babushka a few days ago concerning Graham, the other American student living with us.
Babushka: So Rachel, you want Graham to be your boyfriend?
Me: What? No.
Babushka: Why not? He's a good man!
Me: Well yes, he is, but I don't want Graham to be my boyfriend.
Babushka: Why not?!
Me: Because I already have a boyfriend.
Babushka: Ohh, you have a boyfriend, eh? A boyfriend is not a husband. By tomorrow, he'll be saying "I don't love you" and "I don't want you anymore." And THEN you'll want Graham, eh?
Babushkas say the darndest things!
