She recently said the secret to a long life was a diet of hotdogs and vodka, but also to see the positive in everything you do. “Enjoy life. Accentuate the positive, not the negative. It sounds so trite, but a lot of people will pick out something to complain about, rather than say, Hey, that was great! It’s not hard to find great stuff if you look,” she said.
