I was in the car with my mom for a few hours the other day. She talks. A lot. She worries about a lot, including her inevitable funeral. So, this is how the conversation goes.
Mom: Oh! I meant to tell you, when I die, you should get my casket at Costco.
Me: Umm...okay?
Mom: I saw them when I was there the other day and they're actually kinda *neat*!
Me: Umm...well...uh, how would we get it to the funeral home?
Mom: Oh, I'm sure any old truck would do.
Me: Umm...
Mom: You'd save maybe a couple thousand dollars.
Me: (long pause)...okay.
I wonder if I should be worrying about my funeral instead. She literally sucks the life out of me.
