Thank you, megamania!

It's no fun being old , but having an upcoming shortened work-week for Thanksgiving does ease the pain a bit.

At 44, you aren't old.

The creep of "old" is like holiday creep. Don't let them fool you - Xmas doesn't come until late December, no matter when they start putting things in stores. And old doesn't come until you're actually old. Don't buy in to the melodrama.

Plus, if you call yourself old now, you will fast run out of words to up the ante on your decrepitude when you're 80 or 90.

Only 44? Pah! I've a full quarter-century on you! (. . . turned 69 in August . . .)

You've the same birthday as ukulele chanteuse Molly Lewis, by the way. (Okay, she's not world-famous, but she did cooperate with Jonathan Coulton on one of his "JoCo Cruise Crazy" cruises.)
