What? You don't think that's sexy?

Here are some conversations I've had recently that PROVE I'm old:

Me: I'm not going in the store.
Thing 1: C'mon! Please, mom?
Me: No! I brought you down here so YOU could go. I don't even have a bra on.
Thing 1: That's OK! Do that thing you do, where you pretend like you're cold? And cross your arms under them and hold them up!
..................................................

Thing 2: Did you just fix a wedgie, right here in the middle of Wal-Mart?
Me: How did you know?
Thing 2: Cause you did that little curtsy thing you do.
Me: I do a curtsy thing?
Thing 2: Yeah, and you did it right in front of that lady back there at the front. That's why she was grinning.
Me: There was a LADY back there?
.................................................

Thing 2: What time is it?
Me: I dunno.
Thing 2: Mom, look at the clock, for God's sake! It's right there!
Me: Why don't YOU look at the clock?
Thing 2: Cause that basket is in my way! Just tell me what time it is!
Me: (squinting) It's 13:23
Thing 2: Ah, shit, that's not funny! (raises up) It's 12:58 mom. Can you not SEE that? How can you not SEE that?
Me: I dunno.
...............................................

Boss: Why are you holding your arm like that?
Me: Cause my shoulder hurts like a motherfucker.
Boss: What did you do, lift something?
Me: No, it just started hurting.
Boss: (who is 78) Well, you ARE getting old. Things start to hurt.
Me: Are you wanting me to kill you?
..............................................

Brother 2: Hey sister! How are you feeling?
Me: Whaddya mean, how am I feeling? I'm feeling fine. What do you want?
Brother 2: A lot of women get grouchy when they get old, I'm glad to see it's not happening to you.
Me: Damn skippy.
.............................................

Thing 1: Oh God, you're doing that thing again. I know it's unreasonable, but I get so mad when you first get up and you're all, LIMPING and shit? Like, that really pisses me off...
Me: Dude, you get MAD because I'm stiff and it's hard for me to get going in the morning?
Thing 1: Oh yeah, I can't stand it. I can't even look at you, it makes me so mad. Damn, I hate old people.
Me: Well, YOU'RE a fucking charmer, aren't you?
.............................................

Thing 2: Who was that on the phone?
Me: Someone calling about my high school reunion.
Thing 2: Oh cool! How many years has it been?
Me: Twenty-five.
Thing 2: Wow! Are you gonna go?
Me: Good God, no. I hated all those fuckers in HIGH SCHOOL. Why would I want to see them now?
Thing 2: Well mom, that WAS a REALLY long time ago. You might like some of them now.
Thing 2: (walking away) A lot of them are probably dead by now anyway.
.............................................

Thing 1: Oh my God, did you see that? She almost hit that truck! I saw my life pass before my eyes!
Thing 2: Yeah, she can't drive for shit anymore.
Me: Hello? I'm right here! And I'm a good driver. Besides, I see both your asses jump in the car with me to go to the mall.
Thing 1: Old people shouldn't be allowed to drive.
Thing 2: True that...
..............................................

Husband: I think, when you turn 44, I'm going to trade you in on two 22 year olds. THEN I'll get to have some sex, maybe.
Me: They can have MY room, if they'll cook.
Husband: Oh, they'll cook, all right. In the bedroom.
Me: Yeah, but what will they do the OTHER 23 hours and 50 minutes of the day?

I'm feeling it too. My kids are just more supportive of my codgerliness.

"Me: Good God, no. I hated all those fuckers in HIGH SCHOOL. Why would I want to see them now?"

What a coincidence! I just got an invitation to my reunion and I said those exact words verbatim!

Is he gonna bring a wok into the bedroom? Is he so freakin lazy that he can't even walk to the kitchen to eat?

Where is it that you make this trade? China? Russia? Alabama? I just wanna know where all us old people go when we get traded in.
