DH has a favorite phone. I don't think I could separate him from it
with a crowbar. (Well, maybe if I smashed it.) I might not be old,
but he is definitely a curmudgeon. (Gets it from his father.)
Still, he's MY curmudgeon.

Thanks for saying I'm not old, BTW. As a grey-haired person living
in a college town, it's sometimes difficult to keep a sense of
perspective.
