Can I tell you something?

Except for houses and cars, I buy almost everything with cash. Cold hard cash – cabbage, clams, kale, do-re-mi. Okay, more often than not I buy groceries using a debit card, but only because it’s so much fun to use the bacteria-encrusted touchpad, and once in a while I bust out the American Express when I want to dazzle my date, but that doesn’t happen much anymore because I’ve been happily married for 34 years and my date doesn’t dazzle that easily. What’s weird is that I seem to be the only one paying cash for anything these days.
