Life as a Senior Citizen is not getting any easier, but sometimes it can be fun

 

Yesterday my SON e-mailed me asking why I didn't do something useful with my time. 

Like sitting around playing on my computer is not a good thing? I asked. 

Talking about my "doing-something-useful" seems to be his favorite topic of conversation. 

He said he was "only thinking of me", 

he said and suggested that I go down to the Senior Center and hang out with the ladies. 

I did this and when I got home last night, I decided to play a prank on him. 

le-mailed him and told him that I had joined a Parachute Club. 

He replied, "Are you nuts? 

You are 60 years old and now you're going to start jumping out of airplanes?" 

I told him that I even got a Membership Card and e-mailed a copy to him. 

He immediately telephoned me and yelled, "Good grief, Mom, where are your glasses?! 

This is a Membership to a Prostitute Club, not a Parachute Club." 

"Oh man, I'm in trouble again, I said, I really don't know what to do. 

I signed up for five jumps a week!!" 

The line went quiet and his friend picked up the phone and said that my son had fainted.
