I thought it was when my son first got his license, ...

I thought it was when my daughter first told me she had a 'boyfriend' in middle school, ...

 

Now my new thought, ... my son is now a freshman in college. YIKES! Now I believe I am officially old!!!

Well I have a grandson that is a senior in HS. But I don't feel OLD.

That will definatly make me feel old.

I realized I was getting old when I had a date with someone that was closer to my son's age than to mine.

Scary, just scary.

 

 

 

I think it was when I had to explain to a co-worker, what Beta was and how it compared to and competed against VHS.

 

Or, it could have have been when I had to explain to my son that there was a previous war in the middle east. I felt like my father explaining WWII to me.

 

But, all in all, I don't feel old, just older.

When the next door neighbor's grandson told my wife, "Hey your dad's home" when I pulled up in the driveway. :irked:

When I was out to lunch with some co-workers and the waitress asked to see my AARP card. However, you are only as old as you feel and I feel young these day's. JD:dancingpa :dancingpa

After I turned 50.... spend more time looking for my glasses or something I just had and can't remember where I put it.

When my son asked me who Michael Jackson was!:eek:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Of course, before I told him, I threw out my left hand, grabbed my crotch with my right, threw my head back and went "Hee, hee" and broke out in my moonwalk.

HSSRB and I played in a basketball league last year with a lot of "younger" kids. He always got a kick out of the fact that they called him by his first name but they called me "Mister" followed by my surname.

 

That may qualify as feeling old.
