Duh…Happy Birthday!

To my very dear friend Jenn (a.k.a. Jaibee), who is entering the Super-Secret, Not-To-Be-Trusted Club today.
Fear not - just about everyone I’ve talked to has agreed with me that their thirties have been MUCH better than their twenties. And you’re not really old until at least forty-five… :-p
Yeah, I was out to lunch with my father and stepmother, TBS and The Canuck on Saturday, and I was telling some story that involved a fairly frail woman of 60 or 70 years. I started to say she was elderly or older, when suddenly I realized that the two people I was primarily addressing are turning 64 and 65 respectively next month. I quickly backpedaled and made her “at least 70″. I’m sure they noticed, but they were gracious enough to not call me out on it. 
Yep, I was there too! I was talking to a girl (woman, whatever) about another person, and made the comment, asking who this third party was as, “Is she an older woman? You know, in her f-f-f-f-……?”
I was going to say “fifties,” but then realized that I was speaking to someone who herself was in her fifties…. As I was attempting to remove my foot from my mouth, she replied, “Oh, no, she’s a younger woman, in her forties.” And graciously didn’t say anything else….
