A buddy of mine and I were driving around. I don’t remember why. I remarked about how we had changed over the years. In the years before, we would have noticed pretty women, or cool cars. What were we noticing? Nice yards, and shrubbery.

Had to zoom in on my phone to read a menu at a restaurant. The waitress noticed and brought me a large print version without me asking. The worst part? I was actually grateful for it.
