The Daddy Wears Prada

Humor | Older

From the L.A. Times columnist Chris Erskine:

By gawd, it'll be interesting watching us baby boomer guys grow older. First, we have all the usual traits of the gracefully aging male — forgetfulness, lust, anger, lust, midlife crises and a certain I'm-afraid-of-nothing sensibility that makes a man highly attractive to every member of the opposite sex, except perhaps his own wife.

After 25 years, his wife knows too much. She hears him in the morning pulling up his socks, grunting a little as he bends. Or hears the way his sinuses whistle when he reads the newspaper over coffee.

Exactly. You have to register to read the whole thing, but it's free. And worth the giggles.

The daddy wears Prada

scuse me !!!

lust, anger,lust,

DID YOU MEAN TO SAY LUST TWICE... OR IS THAT PART OF GETTING OLDER TOO. YOU REPEAT YURSELF CUZ YOU DONT THINK ANYONES LISTENING... MOST OF THAT STUFF HAPPENS WAY BEFORE THE TWENTY FIFTH YEAR BUT THEY DONT TELL YA THAT IN ALL THEM FANCY BRIDAL BOOKS..

Wasn't me

I didn't write that article. If I had, lust woulda been in there more than twice. That's the only activity where I don't get distracted easily.

Right now, I'm in Orange, Texas suffering through the effects of Global Warming (61F) and doing petty shit like putting Rain-X on my windows and basically just sucking up the sunshine. I *should* be driving, but I'm kinda distracted by all the sun, and I sure hate to ruin a good day, ya know?

I'm gonna go to Louisiana and git me some o' them there crawdads for dinner. Anybody want some?
