My wife works full time. But that shortly will end. She has been aiming towards retirement next September, BUT, yesterday she learned that there is a possibility that she can retire come January. With full benefits.

I am not sure I am ready for that!!

So this morning, as we were eating breakfast, I asked her if she understood what it meant that she could retire. (This is not a subject that I had brought up before!)

She looked at me, with a small crease between her eyes, and answered that 'of course I know.' And she continued. It means that with my retirement pre- payment I can buy that car I want, have more free time, and be able to concentrate on other things besides a job I no longer like!!

She went back to her plate for a moment, and then looked back up at me, and asked (like maybe she knew me or something....); Why? What are you up to?

Well, I answered, what it really means, I continued as I took another bite, is that my wife is really getting old!

You may have heard of pregnant pauses. Well, this one wasn't.

She just continued eating. (Made me think, just how long have we been married anyway?!)

Being undaunted, I continued. Well, maybe its time to think about trading you in for a couple of 20-something year olds.

This time all she did was snort between bites. I mean, is that irritating or what?! And it really is NOT lady like!

But if you are going to step in it, stomp! DO NOT TIPTOE!

So I asked, Well, don't you have anything to say?

This time she laughed, of all things. Looked at me with a shake of her head. Replied. Honey, I have heard this before, and you ain't wired for 220!!

And all this time I thought she actually worked when she went to work. Who knew they spent their time telling jokes?

I'm 54 and semi-retired, and my wife recently went from a 40 hr wk, 8 hr day to 3 days a wk 12 hr shift. The benefit is we get more time alone together which means a little afternoon delite before the kids get home from school. The drawback is, you give up your quiet times. So ya gotta ask yourself, is more sex worth sacrificing the peace and quiet? Yes, but only until the sex is done.

Don't blame me. I didn't vote.

Q: What are three words you never want to hear when you're having sex?

A: Honey, I'm home.
