At the reunion =
I chatted with grandkids about the advantages of how me getting old was =
like our dog. After all, the dog and me . . =
.
~No one =
expects much of us.
~We’re =
both in the same old leaky boat.
~We can get =
away with a looser standard of behavior.
~We can =
scratch ourselves wherever and whenever we =
please.
~We can =
pretend being deaf when grandma calls.
~We can lie =
around doing nothing all day.
I thought they =
caught the parallelism and would find it funny.
But one =
warned, “Grandpa, remember that when you start drinking out of the =
toilet, we’ll put you in the nursing =
home.”
