I used to be afraid of getting old, but I like this perspective. It's not something to look forward to, but something to be proud of.

    I'm a hair older than him.

    I hurt pretty often. I get tired more easily. I have hangovers now. If I jump out of the bed of a pickup my knees make noises. I could go on for days about it.

    And it's great. I don't worry about what people think and I have adventures. I do what I want outside of work. And I have stories and hobbies and old friends.
