Perfect Quote

"For me, a pessimist is an optimist with experience."

Bob Ryan,   "Scribe"

Carol always tries to paint me as a pessimist. She is wrong about that. I am a realist. I love Bob Ryan's quote. But when it comes to describing me, I don't like the word"pessimist". I don't like the negative connotation it carries with it.

Realist is much more accurate.

Even after 40 years of marriage there are some things Carol has wrong about me.

She thinks I drink too much whiskey.

I think I drink just enough.
