Monday – Forget wearing purple: when I am an old lady, I will grow a moustache.

After breakfast, I snuggled back into bed for a few minutes with my husband.

“I just wanted a birthday cuddle,” I told him.

“Mmmm. Happy birthday,” he said.

“Do I look any older?”

“Mm-mm. Not at all.” It was dark in the room, so of course he couldn’t be trusted.

“I don’t feel any older, but I am. I’ve got a wrinkle.”

“You do? Where?”

“A little one. By my mouth.”

“Yeah, but it’s just one.”

“Now it’s just one, but it’s the beginning of old-lady prune mouth. By the time I’m 80, I’m going to look like hell.”

“Just don’t grow one of those old-lady moustaches. Those are gross. Hey, grandma, you might want to take care of that.” He switched over to his mock old-lady voice. “Why? It’s just a few hairs. I don’t think anyone’s going to notice it. Oh, the hell they won’t!” He paused. “Just don’t let that happen, all right?”

I thought about it for a moment. “I think that if I grow one of those when I get old, I’m going go all out with it. I’m going to buy some wax and make it a handlebar moustache. It’ll cover up the prune mouth. You can grow one, too. We’ll match.”

“Okay, honey. Whatever you want to do.”

The secret to a happy marriage is to tie the knot with someone as depraved as you are....

Mustaches aren't just for old ladies. They're for Polak Wops too. I had one since I was about 13. Back then facial hair bleach was enough. Not any more - now I have to use a depilatory.

Happy birthday.

Yes, but was it thick enough to braid or wax into a handlebar? 'Cause that's what I'm aiming to grow.

Thank you!

Nah, it more resembles a early teenage boy who thinks his peachfuzz makes him look older, cooler, and more mature. For me it just looks like a lady who hasn't gotten rid of her mustache.
