I'm old like almost fine wine....
How often are you asked to put a cork in it? Just asking....

I knew I was old when I realized few years ago that my father was younger than I am now when we came to the US. People were asking him if he was scared starting new life in a new continent in his 40s -- I was a young, 15 year old at that time.
There is, to be fair... A fine line between a nice bottle of wine and a jug of vinegar.
This industry is not getting cheaper and cheaper, we're simply convincing ourselves that we have to push the cheapest option to customers. #makesonosgreatagain

On chemo several years ago, I experienced a few things that might come with old age.
The one that comes to mind was the moment in the shower when I was washing my hair -- me eyes were closed -- and I suddenly realized I was in the middle of falling over. I managed to catch myself.
For more than a year after that, when I closed my eyes in the shower, I stuck out my elbow to touch the wall so I'd have a reliable indication of when I was not just standing upright.
I wonder what other kinds of subtle coping methods people develop as they grow old. Older.

Yesterday I did my first home expo show in about 7 years. Only a six hour show plus setup and tear down. Wow, was my back not having it! It wasn't so much moving a TV, small stand, receiver, small speakers and sub.... it was just standing in one place!!! Just killed on the back. Every half hour or so I would sit down and flip through the phone for a few minutes. Getting old sucks!

the ONLY think that sucks about getting old is what is does to the body. There is NO WAY in hell I would want to be 20 again. Out setting the world on fire, proving yourself, making your mark, building your wealth. No siree. Life is great and hard, smart work pays off. Not a chance i would take a "make me young again pill". No way.

I saw your post about the show on Facebook. How did it go?
