What was all that sighing about, then?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Starsky sighed again. &#8220;It&#8217;s gettin&#8217; very disharmonious.

But we&#8217;re old, now, Starsk. We&#8217;re in the vulnerable age group, and besides that, you&#8217;re missing part of a lung which makes you even more vulnerable.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Well, it all makes for depressing reading, that&#8217;s all I&#8217;m sayin&#8217;,&#8221; Starsky growled.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Then stop reading it and do something more enjoyable.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I did stop reading it, in case you hadn&#8217;t noticed.&#8221; He gave a sudden, brilliant smile. &#8220;And do you have any suggestions for something better to do?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I think I might,&#8221; Hutch said, smiling in his turn. &#8220;Want to come over here, and we can discuss it?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Starsky moved across the room and into his husband&#8217;s welcoming embrace.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/advent.starskyhutchcalendar.net\/2020\/calendar\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/Moments-in-time.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-398\" src=\"http:\/\/advent.starskyhutchcalendar.net\/2020\/calendar\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/Moments-in-time-232x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"400\" height=\"518\" srcset=\"http:\/\/advent.starskyhutchcalendar.net\/2020\/calendar\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/Moments-in-time-232x300.jpg 232w, http:\/\/advent.starskyhutchcalendar.net\/2020\/calendar\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/Moments-in-time.jpg 612w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 400px) 85vw, 400px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Starsky finished flipping through facebook, and closed his laptop with a sigh. &#8220;I don&#8217;t know why you bother,&#8221; Hutch said, putting his book down to glance at his husband.
