This makes me insanely sad. Probably because I remember sitting around my grandparent’s kitchen table on Saturday nights, playing cards and watching Golden Girls. They both laughed at so many jokes that I didn’t get until I was much older, which is good– otherwise I would have been mortified by my grandparents laughing about sex. Even thinking about that now creeps me out. Eww.
Anyway, my grandma just turned 96 and is all alone in a stupid suburban Milwaukee “assisted living community.” She can’t really hear anymore, but I hope she still watches Golden Girls.
Picture it– Wauwatosa, Wisconsin, the late 1980s…
I totally swiped this from the Gawker post, but I think it’s lovely…
