Tougher than Roaches

Just got off the phone with my mom.
After a few minutes of me venting about how I'm trying to learn to be patient, as this "limbo" phase is taking longer than expected and gets a bit frustrating at times, she said,

"Just remember what we always used to say: You're tougher than...what?"

"What?" I said

"You're tougher than...what was it?"

"...roaches?"

"That's right: you're tougher than roaches."

Haven't heard that in, I don't know, 20 years or something. But it's exactly what I needed.
Thanks, Mom.
