   Ah, the superior snark sprinkled among these comments! So clever! I’m in my 80s, and Batiuk’s describing something I’m familiar with – getting up to pee, coming back to bed, and, for me, cozying up to a warm spouse. Snark? Grow some empathy!

   I disagree. My late wife, who died 12 years ago when she was 70 and I was 73, wrinkled before me and resented every one. But in the last few years I saw that she’d earned those wrinkles, and that they showed a beautiful woman of wisdom and experience.
