grrr... although I haven't reached 60 yet, desperation has never reared its ugly head. Old doesn't mean no standards, and, if you're over 50 and single by choice, well, it's by choice.

Second, grocery stores are full of people who just want to buy food, get through the long lines, and get the heck out of there.  Please do not try to flirt when I'm ticked off about the price of tenderloins.

What's wrong with just enjoying things by yourself? Leave romance to those young enough to put up with the stress.

Yes, I'm a grinch.
