But my grandma on the other hand – yeah, crazy. Again, since she raised me, like – she was just like…. I can’t even describe her, other than like… “crazy.” Like, she’s very old school, like “boys will always be better than girls” and since I was supposed to be – like, my family is two girls, right? And to my grandma, that was, like, horrifying, and I [should have been(?)] a boy. So when I was growing up, I always did all the manly tasks. Like, it’d be snowing and I’d have to shovel outside while my sister stayed in. Like, when it was raking the leaves, I was the one raking the leaves, while my sister stayed in. Like, groceries, I had to do – like, I did all the “guy” tasks. Um… and then she’d always go on and on and on about, like, boys and how I should have been a boy.
