You know the TV show "Kids Say the Darndest Things"? Well I think a show "The Elderly Say the Darndest Things" would definitely give it a run of its money. Like children, old people seem to lack a filter between their brain and their mouth....however, the things they say differ in the fact that elderly people aren't quite as innocent as children. Let's just say this wouldn't be a family-friendly program, haha.
So tonight.........it was about 10:00 and most of the residents were already in bed. A male resident, female resident, another caregiver and I were sitting in the living room together. We'll pretend their names are John, Jane, and Emily (respectively). Emily commented on how long John's hair was getting and teased him about letting Jane run her fingers through his pretty curls. Before John could even get a word in, Jane responded with all the seriousness in the world, "I don't even think he has a penis." I died.
These are the moments I live for.
