She spent the weekend on a high school band trip with her daughter and said that Sunday morning she felt like she had a hangover without having had anything to drink. She now admits to not being able to keep up with her twenty year old self.
Mine are 37, 35 (in a few weeks) and 32. No grandkids. Where did we go wrong? Need more atheists!
My other daughter turns 40 next Monday. Son is 34. Oldest and youngest are atheist...middle one goes to church when it suits her or gets her in the good graces of someone she needs something from. Oldest granddaughter is atheist. Will see what happens with the other ones.

If I had married my high school sweetheart, I'd be a great-grand daddy now. She was a grandmother at our 20th high school reunion.

I'm starting to realize that Armored Core is not a great game.
My body hurts from all the constant coughing I'm doing. Wish the cough would go away already. If I never cough again it'll be too soon.

My boys rushed outside to whoop at hawks and just generally make menacing chimp noise in their direction. They're finally starting to feel responsible for their animals. Right this very second, as I type this, my youngest is lobbying me for a gun for christmas. I said, whadda you need a gun for? He says, to make momelettes. Proud papa.

I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

So now you have become the revered matriarch. At least I sincerely hope so
I have no children. I'm the eldest of four, the others are 70, 65 and 61. My oldest nephew is 50.
I'm not a patriarch, but am the senior member of my extended family. That doesn't really mean I'm seen as the head of the family. More like that relative people feel obliged to invite whether they want to or not. I stopped going years ago to that kind of thing unless the person concerned is already in my life. I suspect my funeral will held in a telephone box. Do I care? Hell no, on account of being dead and all.

‘Zazie Beetz’ might just be the greatest name in the history of names.

This was about tomatoes. I cant even.
They must have been rotten.

If you cut a single apple into pieces, when referring to your snack, does it become "apples"?

Today is the 200th birthday of one of my favorite authors, Fyodor Dostoevsky. Or maybe it was 14 days ago, or maybe it will be 14 days from now, because Russia was late to adopt the Gregorian calendar.
