The Very Best Things About Getting Old.

[shilala]

I don't think there's a realistic list out there anywhere, so I figured we should make one.
I have a couple...

1.) No matter what the event, all I have to do is say "Honey, I'm tired", and we go home.

2.) If I'm watching tv and say I'm cold, someone will bring me a blanket.

Whatta ya got?

No one questions you if you occasionally say "I'm beat. I'm going to bed." And it's only 9:00pm.

Making up random facts of how things used to be, and watching the kids look amazed.

Yes I told my nephew his dad used to hunt dinosaurs.

1) I can wear almost anything I want together and no one expects any different.

2) I'm the boss, what I say goes. That's what I hated about being a kid.

My 10-year old nephew was visiting a few months back, looked at the grey in my beard, and said "You're getting old, Uncle J!" I responded "Yeah, well I can order candy over the internet, pay for it with my credit card, and have it delivered straight to my house."

The age range of women who look attractive to you increases every year.
....even if you do change your eyeglass/contact prescription regularly.

[badbriar]

Fewer colds.
You know not to hold the nail for another guy to hit.
You can mostly get away with checking out attractive ladies because you're harmless. :lr

Everything hurts and almost everyone I like is already dead. Oh wait, you said "Very best things about getting old": nothing at all.
