I Am Essentially Eighty-Five Years Old

Reasons why I believe that I am essentially eighty-five years old:

1. I like to eat dinner at 5:00 pm.

2. If the temperature dips below eighty degrees I deem it chilly and grab a sweatshirt.

3. Occasionally I've been known to tuck a kleenex in my sleeve for emergency use.

4. I like Big Band music.

5. New fangled things like electric can openers and answering machines completely befuddle me.

6. I fear my GPS.

7. My car is way to big for me to drive and I'm kind of a menace with it in parking lots.

8. I tell long stories that don't really have a point.

9. I use the term "back in my day" about three times a week. And I'm referring to Ronald Regan. Plus side to this, I'm actually referring to Regan the President, not an actor. Yay me!

10. I've referred to Alex Trebek as a "handsome young devil" on more that one occasion.
