Golden Years

[MacG]

Leaving the Store, I couldn't find my Keys. They weren't in my pockets. Suddenly I realized I must have left them in the car. Frantically, I headed for the parking lot. My husband has scolded me many times for leaving my keys in the car's ignition. He's afraid that the car could be stolen.

As I looked around the parking lot, I realized he was right. The parking lot was empty. I immediately called the police. I gav...e them my location, confessed that I had left my keys in the car, and that it had been stolen.

Then, I made the most difficult call of all to my husband: "I left my keys in the car and it's been stolen."

There was a moment of silence. I thought the call had been disconnected, but then I heard his voice. "Are you kidding me?" he barked, "I dropped you off!"

Now it was my turn to be silent. Embarrassed, I said, "Well, come and get me."

He retorted, "I will; just as soon as I convince this cop that I didn't steal your **** car!"

Welcome to the golden years...

My idiot first wife did that to me, we were in our early 20's so can't chalk it up to old age!
She drove the car to school and walked home. Then when we went to go for groceries there was no car in the parking lot so we called to report it stolen... after a few hours campus cops told us car was in the parking lot at her school - it had been there a few days.


OK, on the golden years theme:
What's a worse sign of old age dementia than looking for the milk in the cupboard?





Finding it.

Good to know as I am getting into the golden age too~ at least I can try more possibilities when looking for something before calling the cops...
