It's weird

Completely strange. Unless Mom talked to him?

Jed is treating me like a person instead of being a complete butt. Of course his girlfriend is visiting so he may be putting on a show for her.

Who knows.

Anyway it's weird.

Also something I thought was funny.

Last Monday when we were at dad's cleaning Jed was there and the kidlets followed him around, like they always do, for a bit. Then they went off and did their own thing for a bit. While they were busy Jed left. He just left he didn't say goodbye or anything.

So a few minutes later Dria came looking for him. I told her that he'd gone and she was crushed. I mean completely crushed. She has a hard time when someone leaves without saying goodbye. She's always been like that and Jed knows it, or he should, she is his niece after all and he's been told before.

Then on Friday we were at dad's again and Jed showed up with his girlfriend. After a bit Jed says to me very conspiratorially, "look Dria's jealous again." (once a couple of years ago Jed had a girlfriend that Dria didn't particularly like and so avoided her and Jed when they were around and my mom decided that Dria was jealous and that was why Dria was avoiding Jed). I said, "Nope, she's mad at you for leaving the other day with out telling her goodbye."

Jed was stunned. Completely gobsmacked. It was like he was thinking, "Dria's mad???? I wasn't aware she had feelings." or something equally dumb.

But, he did apologize. Again I'm not sure why. Was it because his girlfriend was there? Because he really didn't want Dria to be mad at him? or what??

Of course Dria forgave him, she absolutely adores Jed and always has. Even she was just a little bit of a thing and going through stranger anxiety and only wanting me and Tony she would go right to Jed (unless he was wearing a hat, then all bets were off. LOL) I didn't though. You don't hurt my babies and get off that easily. Butthead.

Anyway I thought that his expression was priceless. Of course I didn't have the camera at the time. Darn the luck.
