I was just playing an impromptu game of charades with myself. I was speaking of coordinates with my husband and he and I were laughing our butts off because I couldn’t remember a word that he knew, but he wouldn’t say the word I was looking for.

So this was me: It looks like a watch, and it has a little hand like a watch only it helps you with directions. And then suddenly the word compass came to my mind. Meanwhile we are both laughing and he says; there you go. As I’m laughing, I tell him getting old isn’t too bad, because at any time you can play a game of charades, to liven up a boring conversation.

So for those of you who know about impromptu charades, what have you found amusing about getting older?
