Am I Really That Old?

Am I Really That Old?

Have you ever been guilty of looking at others your own age and thinking, "Surely I can't look that old!" Well, you're gonna love this one...

I was sitting in the waiting room for my first appointment with a new dentist when I noticed his diploma hanging on the wall. It bore his full name and I suddenly remembered a tall, handsome dark-haired boy with the same name. He had been in my high school class some 40-odd years before and I wondered, "Could he be the same guy I had a secret crush on way back then?"

When I got into the treatment room I quickly discarded any such thought. This balding gray-haired man with the deeply lined face was much too old to have been my secret crush... or was he?

After he examined my teeth I asked if he had attended Morgan Park High School.

"Yes, I did. I'm a Mustang!" He said, gleaming with pride.

"When did you graduate?" I asked.

"1959. Why do you ask?" he answered.

"Well, you were in my class!" I exclaimed.

To which the ugly, old, wrinkled jerk asked, "So, what did you teach?"

My wife has tours come to her gallery just about everyday in the summer. Yesterday I started talking to a fellow. I saw he was wearing a caps from Olds Alberta. So I get asking and he's taught at the college for 39 years and taught me accounting when I went back 30 years ago. I didn't tell him he did such a poor job I had to marry an accountant. :wink:

Haha That was a funny story.
Im 37 and I feel old an worn out! A lot of my friends are dead now :(
Of course my friends tend to be older than me. But still I hate this getting old. Everything hurts worse when your old. Plus the older I get the more grumpy I get.
Then when I was young I didnt like being young. When your young you dont know anything so the youth is just wasted. Now that I know better its the physical part that holds me back. :mad: :lol: :wink:

I'm adding an addition to my house. The crew is here to pour the footings for the walls, etc. I kept noticing one young man as he looked soooo familiar.

So later on, we got to talking and I had taught him when he was in the 8th grade!!! He's been out of highschool almost 20yrs now!!

Holy Smokes!!! :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock:

The ONLY saving grace I have is that I was just fresh out of college then and wasn't too many yrs older than my students, as I taught from 8th grade to 12th grades then!
