I'm gonna be JUST like her someday....
My Grandma was admitted to the hospital today with chest pains (which were somehow NOT reason enough for her to use her lifealert button). Reports on her status were sketchy across the miles; possibly a heart attack, she's going to be fine, she's joking and asking for anything edible. Finally after hours of wondering what was going on and if she was indeed just fine I found a source of reliable information. My cousin.
Not only was Grandma doing fine, she apparently provided much entertainment to the hospital staff. When asked whether she experiences feelings of hopelessness or depression she replied with "Well, no, but I could if I wanted to". The nurse in his most serious professional manner asked her if he had to worry about her committing suicide and she responded, rather indignantly, "I would DIE before I committed suicide". And when the nurse asked if she was having any more chest pain she said "No, why? Did you find some?"
She is my hero!

All I need now is a stage name and fans....
Professional wrestling has nothing on the spectacle of me trying to put the duvet cover back on a king-sized comforter.
