35-44

Getting old. Going grey? yes, no problem there. More grooves in the face? got them too. Less fit than when younger? actually no, I’m better than I was (I think). Wiser? maybe, but why lose the fun and the risk? The birthday itself? I’m getting to like them more. So do I mind getting old? In all respects but one, no I do not.
There is that one part that really bugs the hell out of me. It’s the demographic thing.

Please select your age range:
18 – 24
25 – 34
35 – 44
45 – 54
55 – 64
65+

This is my last year when for the purposes of marketing that I will be associated with people younger than me.
This is my last year when I can, when faced with a form like this, pretend I could even be younger than I am.
This is my last year in the first half of that range of ages. It really is downhill from now.

30 – 40 might have made me feel better :)
