D is off to NYC on Thursday. Gods, don't we feel old!
Well, I suppose we have no choice but to feel as old as our children think us..LOL.
I will relay a recent conversation between Brandon and me.
Brandon: (after going to a recent concert of a band called Bullet for my Valentine, of whom I've never heard) "Do you think we could go to a Linkin Park concert sometime?"
Me: "Well, you know I like Linkin Park and wouldn't mind seeing them in concert but I wonder if I am getting too old for that sort of thing" (See where I set myself up.)
Brandon: "Oh, there were alot of old people at Bullet for my Valentine"
Me: "Are you saying that I am old"
Brandon: "Well there were all kinds of people your age" (Note how he never did deny that he considered me old.)
