My Grandmother
Laughlin was as good as could be. I lost some money, saw plenty of old people, and ate crappy food.
Typical things my grandmother said during the visit:
Me: You have a can of Lysol in your bathroom. Did the hotel have that or did you bring it?
Grandma: Oh I brought that. You know your grandpa always cleans the toilets in a hotel room.
Me: Really? Is that so?
G: Oh yes. We also put toilet paper down cause you never know how many butts have been on that seat.
Me. Mmhm. And how about how many people have slept and had sex in that bed?
G: *Silence with horrified look*
Grandma: You know that chinaman over there. He's very nice. For a chinaman.
Me: Could you please stop saying "chinaman"?
Grandma: Well that's what he is. He knows that.
Me: So did the doctor give you any special instructions since your stroke?
Grandma: It was not a stroke!!! I just fainted. Everyone faints.
Me: Everyone doesn't faint. And it was a stroke. The doctor said so.
G: Sometimes you really can't believe everything you hear Melissa.
She's crazy.

Grandmas that are so stuck in their ways are so much fun. My Grandmother is from North Carolina. She has all kinds of fun ethnic expletives. I wish "chinaman" was the most offensive one. Sadly, it is not. Racism is fun!
Old people are funny...unless they are driving, then they are just scary.
