I'm suddenly feeling old around here, well old in general. Perhaps because I'm sounding more and more like my dad lately, talking politics. Damn it, he was right about a lot of things. I'm am 37. Ouch. When I was young, I thought 37 was old.

3. 43 and totally loving it! |

:hi: I don't feel old at all. I decided that I was going to enjoy my life, and by golly, I'm doing that. :D I'm a lot more self-confident than I was even five years ago, and that's a great place to be.

didn't someone just do a poll about this? I wish I could find the link, but I don't know what the thread was titled. It seems most of the people were in their 40's and 50's. here is the link to the poll: http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_topic&forum=105&topic_id=5476640

65. I don't' have a range. I am 43. As for feeling old, get this. |
|
One day in grade school, circa 1970, the teacher talked about the turn of the century coming up. We all figured out how old we would be in 2000. (Even back then they had it wrong about the year the century turned.) I would be thirty-seven. THIRTY-SEVEN! :decrepit:
So, I'm not a range. I'm just forty-three. Next year I won't be a range. I'll be forty-four. :shrug:
