Grow Old With Me

Grow old along with me!
The best is yet to be,
The last of life, for which the first was made.
ROBERT BROWNING


I love everything about the Brownings. If you've never read their story, it goes something like this:
He fell in love with her upon reading her published poetry. She was in delicate health. Her father was very against it. Robert moved Elizabeth to Italy, where love and the better atmosphere caused her health to improve as she thrived in her new lifestyle. They lived happily ever after.
Doesn't that make you just sigh with hope? Even if you're already in your own happily ever after?

Now, here's a link into mine:
Husband:   Damn it, I have to pee again.
Me:             It's because you're forty.
Husband:   What?
Me:             It's because you're forty.
Husband:   I was snoring?
Me:             IT'S BECAUSE YOU'RE FORTY.
Husband:   Oh.
As he walked away, I muttered something about being forty also affecting his hearing.
