These are my 'whatever, I do what I want' years. No progeny bugging me for shoes or college funds, parents healthy and independent, hormone levels basically stable. I'm sittin pretty in a plethora of bachelor girl delights. I am aware, however, that there's a tradeoff: my geriatric years will be spent without any guilt-ridden younger people to do things for me. But I'm a responsible adult - I have a plan! I'm gonna need internet, a toilet, a bed, a window, booze, and some neighbourhood kids I can bribe to get me smokes and tins of beans. For the past ten years I've had my eye on the Parkview Arms (above) as the perfect seedy downtown rooming house for my sunset days. Imagine my concern when all the other biggish buildings in the neighbourhood have turned into $400,000 condo blocks! Where are we losers supposed to go? But check it out - the Parkview Arms just upgraded their image to match their fancypants neighbours with a classy new neon sign, and a lick of shiny brown paint. Hang in there Parkeview Arms, my retirement plans are still a go!
