But I Don’t Plan to Retire

“But I don’t plan to retire.” My friends words were typical of what I hear when others learn of my book.

I think my response surprised him.

Him: “But I don’t plan to retire.”

Me: “Neither do I.”

Him: “But you did!”

Me: “Not really.”

Him: “Yeah” (said with heavy sarcasm), “so that’s why you don’t go into work every morning? And the book? You wrote about retirement because you didn’t retire”?

Me: “Exactly.”
