I am generally a very punctual person, but my dad is known to be on his own schedule. It was a running joke in our family for years that when going on vacation we were going to get up at sunrise to get on the road. I don't believe we've ever left for anywhere before 10am.heybartenderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09916319179509954795noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21602861.post-82194725650678730012010-01-29T08:31:22.475+00:002010-01-29T08:31:22.475+00:00'A girl needs a vice'?

I remember once, in the days when we were all rather more formal, an old lady telling me that there was no one left to call her by her first name.<br /><br />On the other hand, a century can be a goal. I have another lovely old friend who is nearly 99, whose greatest wish is to reach 100.Zhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00822383355869390919noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21602861.post-62477312457619552482010-01-28T22:34:37.430+00:002010-01-28T22:34:37.430+00:00Dr. B. is near the one hundred.

Helped him with his last article, did go for him in the library etc. He once told me that the worst for him is that there is no one of his age, of his generation around: He and his family are deeply rooted in the history of this city, but he is the last, of abiturium, of the people he studied with, he served with, with those he rebuilt this town together, the collections etc. - he's all the last one, the last, lone, survivor.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21602861.post-70581033805982175662010-01-28T22:24:39.226+00:002010-01-28T22:24:39.226+00:00That does it...I'm toppin' mesel!!!!

It's been in my mind for a while though, as one of the things to write when I hadn't anything to write about. And we all need a break from my hip, as it were.<br /><br />We used to speak gloomily about an old woman whom we were saddled with for years. "God doesn't want her either," we used to say, and speculate how He and the Devil were bargaining, each to avoid her. She lived to 101.
