The Very Best Things About Getting Old.
 

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?

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."
