My Life is Now Over

I sent my husband to the grocery store last Thursday. I asked him to pick up a bag of tortilla chips and some cheese to go along with the chili that I'd made for dinner. A few minutes after he left, my phone rang. The caller ID indicated that it was him calling me. I wondered if he'd forgotten something and so I picked up the phone. Here is our conversation:

Me: Did you forget something?

Him: No. You'll never believe what just happened. I saw a sign in the grocery, and I realized something awesome!

Me: What? That you can buy food there?

Him: No! I am old enough to get the Senior Citizen Discount on Thursdays! I'll never pay full price again!

Duh-duh-duh. I'm married to a Senior Citizen. Life as I know it is now O-V-E-R.

(Note: this is totally tongue in cheek. It's not offensive to be married to a senior citizen. But I'm 40 and he's 55 - I didn't expect this type of stuff for a long time yet!)

umm Kohl's does that discount as well. Just saying! LOL

[Kristi]

AARP here he comes...just think how much more buying power your family has just aquired due to his "senior" status. LOL

[Amie]

Remember when he bought those senior citizen white athletic shoes? Seems now that he is official he can break them out again :)

[Wendy]

As long as you don't start eating dinner at 4:30 in the afternoon then I think you just "use" his status for the discounts and forget it the rest of the time.

[Headless Mom]

I think that officially means that you can send him to do all of the shopping now. Think of the work load that you can shove off on him now!

[Average Jane]

Good to know! My husband is only 53, but I'll be waiting for that juicy senior citizen discount in two years.

[addy]

rolling drums - crashing cymbals - MORE DISCOUNTS!! His acquired status will certainly come in handy now. Down side- he will have to be with you to obtain said discounts.... Just Sayin'

haha I always say that I'm completely grossed out because I'm sleeping with a 40 something married man! The teenage me would be horrified! LOL

[MelissaS]

LOL!!!!! I say he has a new chore - the grocery shopping on Thursdays :)

[Sasha]

I'm 34 and my Hubbins is 44. I tease him on a weekly basis about all the places he's going to take me to when he gets his senor discount. LOL!

One of the things I tell him is that he is the original brat. If someone were to look up brat in the dictionary, his picture would be there. He started to try to tell me that it was my picture that would be there but I told him it couldn't be because he had a 10 year head start. ;-p

[Megsie]

I didn't know a senior discount could start that YOUNG, is 55 the new 75?

[Pat]

I found out last year that I qualify for Senior Citizen discounts at local movies; I never inquired, I don't even qualify for Medicare. I went with my cousin who is 1 1/2 years older than I and she asked for Sr. Citizen discounts for both of us.

I also decided to use the AARP card that I was depressed to receive 8 years ago, but found out that it gives a 30% discount on eyeglass frames at my optician--I can happily accept that!

[Mary Anderson]

LOL My husband belongs to AARP!

[kyooty]

The problem of course is that men of his age have a tendency to stock up for the apocalypse in food they like vs food the family needs. LOL

visitor of your website i will share it with my friends..http://www.idolreplicas.com
Thanks.

Maybe you should think of the brighter side instead of feeling bad about the situation. You're husband can now enjoy the discounts. There are a lot of things you can enjoy because of his status. I've been enjoying freebies and other benefits for the elderly for some years now, and it's great!
