"..while filling out the will, I got to have this conversation:
Me: "What is this space for?"
Lawyer: "You can specify what happens with your body after you die."
Me: "So I can choose 'Buried' or 'Cremated'."
Lawyer: "Yes."
Me: "Can I choose 'Boiled'?"
Lawyer: "Yes. But only if, afterwards, you are buried or cremated."
and of course:
"Our baby is miraculously saved by the inadequate size of our broiling pan. Darn you, baby!"

I laughed until I made funny squeaking sounds instead of breathing.
