Heh.

I'm pretty sure this is how it would work out around here, too...

Well, it's not a mid life crisis, but here's how things worked out for me.

Married 45 years, I took a look at my wife one day and said, "Honey, 45 years ago, we had a cheap apartment, a cheap car, slept on a sofa bed and watched a 10 inch black and white TV, but I got to sleep every night with a hot 22 year old sexpot. Now, we have a nice house, nice car, big bed and plasma screen TV, but I'm sleeping with a 67 year old woman. It seems to me that you are not holding up your side of things."

My wife is a very reasonable woman. She told me to go out and find a hot 22 year old sexpot, and she would make sure that I would once again be living in a cheap apartment, driving a cheap car, and sleeping on a sofa bed.... !!!!!!

Hey, who knew? Ain't America great?

I *don't* like sofa beds.

The grass is always greener on the other side ... until you get over there, and discover it was just the way the sunlight was shining on the nap of the grass. LOL
 
That's true! Someone did a research project on it. When you look straight down at 'your' grass you see it 'end on' and generally see through it to the ground below. When you look at 'their' grass you see it from the side and get the full effect of the 'greenness'.
 
I don't see that conversation ending quite that well in my house. The grass isn't greener when you're looking up at it.
 
harumph.... *my* grass is full of yellow jackets right now... no matter how "green" the grass is, the bees still sting. HARD. (no kidding- I really did get stung by at least a gajillion yellow jackets this weekend. OK... 8 or 9. But DAMN it HURT! I still have holes in my ankles and calves!)
 
[ba dum dum!] My Dad loves that joke :)
 
Grass? Who has any grass? I told my husband a few years back, if someone shows up and she wants you, you are free to go. Just remember. The Dog is mine.
