Resident called me a "cheap date"...

Published

I spent Only 20 minutes listening to my 91 yr. Old resident reminsence on his life. So when I politely excused myself from our conversation he say" well, aren't you a cheap date" he proceeded to say that I'm the type of girl that will be ready to end a date after walking around the block one time.

This tickled me so I thought I would share it with you all.

I love the elderly, something about most of them - especially the males - that is endearing and tough.

Maybe it's because the majority had served in a time of war, I don't know. It just seems like as we lose this last generation - something about our tougher, wittier, and more down to earth culture is going with it.
