What to do? A day with several options - Day # 747, same as the plane, and Feb. 29 -it is leap day! Sadie Hawkins Day! Three- count 'em, three!- possibilities in one! Okay, maybe I can only squeeze in two......well, there's always....next year.....or in another four years!
Forever Young
(in honor of Leap Year and Sadie Hawkins Day)

(A very, very old woman moves slowly onstage. She has on a tiara and a sash and she waves at the audience)
Thank you all - you wonderful folks in Senior Channel Land for celebrating my 25th birthday! Yes, I am legitimately only 25 years old, even though you might imagine I am lying, I am not....here is my birth certificate!
(She holds up a paper and points)
There it is - in black and white! Born on February 29th in the year of 1916!
It has been a great 25 years - even better when I learned about Sadie Hawkins - because of being able to propose on a leap year....I've had seven husbands! All much older than me! My first marriage was when I was a baby - only five years old, and my husband 21!
All my children are older than I am, and my grandchildren, too! In a few years, the same will be true for my great grandchildren, and I look forward to finding another husband....maybe one a few years older than I am.....how about a thirty-five year old!
(She turns to toddle off, stops, looks back)
Ooh, I just love Leap Year! See you when I'm fifty - but not if I see you first!
(She exits to put some more years under her garterbelt)
