If you didn’t read yesterdays post, back up and read it. I got to thinking about what grumpy old men have to look forward to. First and foremost they look forward to being grumpy to someone new. It gets old being grumpy to the same old people.
They look forward to weather that is not too hot or cold. This cuts down on the electric bill. A good gentle rain at night is great for sleeping. Grumpy old men are expert sleepers. And, if it rains during the day, we just take a nap.
It is always nice to talk to an old friend that you haven’t talked to in a long time. But, I’ve noticed they talk too much and interrupt what I am trying to tell them.
Grumpy old men like fried foods. Why is everyone so concerned about fried foods? The worse they can do is kill you. What’s worse, dying or going without fried food - like pork chops. I get those about twice per year.
They look forward to something not breaking. A day that nothing breaks is a real good day.
And, grumpy old men really do look forward to visits by grandchildren.
Even if they do wonder, "Why are you so grumpy?"
