We were talking about a friend who's joining a medical practice owned by a doctor who's in his early nineties and still practicing.

My grandmother says, "Sure, but, really, ninety is more like what seventy used to be. But, I have to admit, once you hit eighty, you really don't feel as young as you used to."

Me: "What does that mean? You can't pull all-nighters anymore? You can't stay up drinking tequila shots all night and still go to class in the morning like you did when you were seventy-five?"

My grandfather: "Yeah, something like that."

Me: "What I WILL say is that we GenX'ers are the first generation in history who are hitting middle age before our parents are. . . "

LIS: I'm hungry. And we don't have any of the yogurt I want -- just Greek yogurt, which I don't want right now.
IAN: We don't have Greek yogurt.
LIS: I don't want Greek yogurt.
IAN: Well, that's good, because we don't have any. We only have the yogurt you want.
LIS: Where?
IAN: [GOES TO THE KITCHEN, GETS THE YOGURT LIS WANTS OUT OF THE FRIDGE.] Here. See? It's the yogurt you want, not the yogurt you don't want.
LIS: Actually, I want milk instead.
