Hey! I am NOT that old!!!
You may, faithful reader, remember the unfortunate "where's your grandson?" incident at our favorite pizzeria. Well, now I have grown a nice fluffy white beard (with a small patch of what is left of my original auburn coloring right on the chin).
Tonight we went over to Chile Verde, our favorite Mexican restaurant. The waiter was very nice, spoke to us in Spanish. After a bit Carmen pointed out that he was addressing me as "abuelito."
Grandaddy!
I told Carmen I was shaving off the beard and the moustache, and dying my hair, but she said she wouldn't recognize me!

Well, you are turning another year older soon - Friday I believe. Happy birthday Abuelito!
Not to worry. Remember there's always someone "way older" than you. (It's interesting running into one of my sons high school friends and having them tell me they have a 14 year old child.)
