- Encountered:
- Señora and I were sitting on the love seat in the family room when I said something to her that was playful, but extremely raunchy. For the sake of us, neither of us can remember what it was. For reasons she does not remember – the senior moments just keep stacking up – she put whatever the phrase was into Google. The first thing that popped up was the definition of gerontophilia. And thus we both learned a new word.
