Darla, you're ageless. *swoon

When I realized that I was just about a month short of being 10 years older than POTUS. Damn.

Truth. I do more physical work in a day than some 20'ish guys do in a week. Not sure that's saying much though.

This And the soup of the day

My wife got me some "readers" for Christmas.

She thinks they look sexy, so I may stop fighting it.

Waking up at 6:30 is sleeping in late.

I remember the first time I bought reading glasses.

I had to stop at a Walgreens in Clear Lake, TX.

"Welp, that's it. I'm old."

You would rather have a garden full of tomatoes than put up with all the bullshite that comes with pussy.

A related one that is a problem for me.

Now, every time a famous person dies, our any person really, I find myself calculating how close I am. I used to think, "shite, I'm more than half way there" but at least I could tell myself I probably had more adult years left than I'd already lived.

Now, even the adult years post isn't exactly a given. I've lived 29 adult years if you count from 18. 29 from now would be 76.

I outwork the frick out of the high school part-timers at work. I'm 53. Every now and then I'll clean and jerk a 50-pound bag of potatoes just so they know not to frick with me.

I'm 30, and I'd be hard pressed to not hit the tomatoes with either a whiffle ball bat or a tennis racquet. Don't think that'll ever end.

Got drunk at a bar for New Years and had bottle rocket wars on the side of Superior. Still fishtail at every turn when it is raining. Being old is in your head geezers

I was benching at the gym not long ago and a 30 year old guy I know from with showed up. I was about to do my first set and he commented that he was surprised I could lift that.

I chuckled. He asked why. I was like, um, "it's going to go up significantly from here". And like I said, I've fallen off a solid 10% in the last three years.

Sit ups no longer tighten up that bulge in your stomach because sit ups have no affect on hernias.

Lulz. Wait until one locks you down, and drains your bank account. Once you have kids, they gotcha.
