WHAT? AGAIN!



Every year at this time, TLW (The Little Woman) celebrates her birthday. Unlike me, who hasn’t had a birthday since I turned 50, hers keep on coming, and I keep on getting older. It is strange because she doesn’t seem to get any older, but I do!

Oh, she can complain that she has aches and pains, but she does that to make me feel good, so I don’t feel alone. Before we were married I did the usual checks on her, a D&B, a request of all her health and dental records, and her birth documents. The strange thing is she said her birth documents were all destroyed in a fire. So I asked: “Are you younger than me?” Her answer was: “Yes, that’s it, I’m younger than you.” I inquired if there was a way I could verify that and she said that I just had to believe her, after all; she did go to Catholic school.

Through the years I’ve noticed other things about her. For instance she has gone to the bathroom only 4 times in 40 years. She could subsist on a diet of pizza for the rest of her life, and she has all my money. She doesn’t always laugh, except for those rare occasions when I trip and fall.

There is one problem in particular: she has a rotten memory; she remembers EVERYTHING I do or say!

So today is her Birthday! We will downplay it for her sake, but we will go out with friends, and celebrate one of my favorite people, http://lbeeler.blogspot.com/ Laura’s birthday as well that falls on the same day as TLW’s. HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO HEW. HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO HEW, HAPPY BIRTHDAY TLW, HAPPY BIRTHDAY I LOVE YOU!
