Old?

Some little kid referred to me as an old man today. "Mommy that old man's in the way" is what he said. Fuck him, that little gaffer. What would he have called a person of eighty, or ninety?

I've got virtually no grey hair, nor do I walk with a cane. I feel just as I did twenty years ago. In hind sight though, when I was that kid's age, people of twenty-one were old. When I was twenty, thirty-nine was old. In that kid's eyes I guess I am old. That damned little rug rat!
