Five Things that Make Me Feel Old

1. Knee problems. I have knee problems. Stupid knee problems.

2. These damn kids and the fact that they won’t get off of my lawn.

3. My new-found ability to fall asleep by ten o’clock on a Friday night.

4. Prunes. Apparently I like prunes. Next stop? Matlock. Throw in an early bird special and we might as well just move to Florida now. Gah. 

5. Did I mention that my knees hurt?

  1. Re #2: Last night, my partner and I were walking George,the dog (40lb pit/mix who is lovely but wants to be friends with little dogs SO badly I’m afraid he’ll pull an ‘Of Mice and Men’) and this tiny yippy dog came running at us. George perked up, ready to make friends, and I freaked out a little. I yelled for the owner of the tiny thing and it was a kid… maybe 14. He got his tiny dog and we were on our way.

    We got home and I went upstairs to get something and my partner looks at me sideways and asks where I’m going. To get my bat and go after the kid with the dog, DUH!

    Oy vey! 31 and already an old fart yelling at the neighborhood kids.

    Oh, and prunes are delish…
