true story about my grandmother

When they took my grandmother into the hospital for the last time, they gave her the usual battery of questions to see if she was in her right mind. 

Hospital: Who's the president?
Granny: George Bush, and he's a shitass.

Granny later told my aunt "I shouldn't ought to have said that," but I'm so glad she did.

I can't wait to get old.

Your Grandmother proved that many other people that seem to be in their right mind, in fact are not.

Thank you so much for all your help in this time. I know I wouldn't have made it nearly this far along without it.

I'd love to know if she ever drops in on you. :)

*HUG*

You'll be the second to know.

Good to have her sanity clarified so completely.

Sounds like your Grandmother was a really cool lady.

She sounds like a great lady who was most *definitely* in her right mind. :)

No question she was lucid.

lol awesome!

before my great-aunt Betty Lou died, I was talking to her at a famiy reunion thingie - she had been diagnosed with pancreatic cancer already

I said something about Uncle Dickie

"oh him," she said, nose curling, "he's an asshole"
"wow," I said, "I'm not allowed to say such a thing... he's still my elder"
"well he's not MY elder and I can say it all I want: He's an asshole"

Damn I miss Aunt Betty Lou. Bet she and your grandma are rocking the afterlife.
