Lol. Did I ever tell you about the time two 20ish ( I hope) girls stood in front of me at a store cashier? One checked me out and too loudly said to her friend I was kinda cute. I smiled. Felt good. The friend shoulder checked, almost got sick and said "Gross! He's old--like my dad, old. What's wrong with you?"

I did not feel so good, but when I told my wife, she laughed. After she wiped the ears she consoled me.

Aging can suck. Last year I was possibly still within range of sexy. Now I'm gross. Ugh. Fat. Old.
