Well, it's not a midlife crisis, but here's how it was all put into perspective for me.
Married 38 years, I took a look at my wife one day and said, "Honey, 38 years ago, we had a cheap apartment, an inexpensive car, slept on a sofa
bed and watched a 12 inch black and white TV, but I got to sleep every night with a hot 22 year old cutey pie. Now, we have a nice house, a swimming pool, nice cars, a big bed and a 42 inch flat screen TV, but I'm sleeping with a 60 year old woman. It seems to me that you don't seem to be holding up your side of things."
My wife is a very reasonable woman. She told me to go out and find a hot 22 year old blond, and she would certainly make sure that I would once
again be living in a cheap apartment, driving an old beat up car, and sleeping on a friggin' sofa bed...
Sometimes things just have to be put in "simple terms."
