When Grandma Comes To Town

I'm watching Twoandahalfmen and Charlie's supposed to take Jake to school, and then in his halfwitted way takes him someplace else only to find out that it's the wrong place, and then is about to have a nasty fart over not knowing where he's supposed to take him, and I say, Take the day off ya stup'd idyut!  And of course, I'm guess we're all supposed to realize how stupid this is, when it's well Judith took a vacation to Hawi'aa and well let the kid take a day off!  That's what I would say anyway; but no Charlie has his long fart, finds the right school via his cell phone and later goes home to get drunk on his couch and...

But no...  for a moment there I was back somewhere in a downtown Heidelberg or Stuttgart or ... And I'd swear it was fasching, all because my grandma'd come to town.  Twas one of those rare events where I didn't have to go to school, because she wanted to take me into town, for a museum, or something...  It's a memory that somehow haunts me.  It is like someone was there in painted face, which is why I think it was fasching ...  But no, it is the vagueness of the memory that haunts me.
