I WAS NOT IN SAN FRANCISCO!!

grandma rang me over the weekend. she rang to wish me happy birthday. that was nice.
then she rambled on for a bit, as old people do sometimes. the largest portion of the telephone call was a stupid argument. she was absolutely positive that i went to san francisco earlier this year. she was rather sad that i didn't get in touch with her whilst i was there. she said she saw it on my livejournal, a photo of brett & auntie doris when we all had dinner together. i think she meant this entry or this entry.
BUT I WASN'T THERE!! HONEST!!! if i was there, don'tcha think i wouldda visited the entire family and stayed a little longer?!?!? don'tcha think i wouldda been in the photo?? yes, brett was there. yes, he had dinner with auntie doris and uncle tim. brett was there for an apple conference as part of his uni work. the uni paid for it so he couldn't stay much longer than the conference. i did not go with him.
but so insistent was she. by the end, i just stopped arguing with her. i let her believe that i was in san francisco. i let her believe that i was a bad granddaughter and didn't bother to ring her whilst i was there. *sheesh* i'm not sure what else i could have done.
so just for the record: i did NOT go to san francisco (or any other part of america) earlier this year. i have NOT been to america since christmas holidays 2003.
anyone willing to corroborate my stand, please do so.
