I must be getting old

I ran a 2.4 mile course around the Avenues this evening. There were two church missionaries walking up the street, wearing their white shirts, ties and backpacks. As I ran past them, I jokingly said, "Yall, should be running." They were very polite and friendly and after I passed, I heard one said to the other, "I wish my grandpa would do that."

Ouch. Last year (twice!) some 14-year old offered me the 'Senior' option for tickets at the movies. I asked for the qualifying age - '65'. I was 55 at the time.

Several years ago, I bought a six-pack of beer at Kroger's. The young female cashier asked for my ID. Then, a young kid bagged the beer and then asked if I needed him to carry it to my car. She thought I was too young to buy it and he thought I was too old to carry it.
