Sign #3949844 I Am Getting Old


This morning I placed two pieces of bread in the toaster and proceeded to stare at the appliance for 3 minutes before I noticed I had not fully pressed down the lever.

Frustrated, I pressed the lever down extra hard to make sure it locked. I walked away, figuring staring didn’t help. After a few minutes, I noticed it still hadn’t popped. Coming back to the kitchen I saw that I had failed to plug the toaster into the wall.

    I love that you are getting older! Because if you weren’t that would mean you were dead and I’m very glad that you are alive. I would like to hear the other 3,949,843 signs of you getting old, though.

    Hahahahaha!!! I had a moment like that the other day trying to boil water for the oatmeal. Stared at the pot for a while, walked away for a while, came back and realized that the element wasn’t hooked in correctly so there had been no heat. Lame.

    I’m glad you prefer me alive. Even though I am still worth quite a bit dead :-)
