lagalaxy8 Posted February 1, 2008 Report Share Posted February 1, 2008 Senior Citizens Lament (Joke)Everything is farther away now than it used to be, it is twice as far to the corner & they’ve added a hill, I’ve noticed.I’ve given up running for the bus, it leaves faster than it used to.It seems to me they are making stairs steeper than in the old days, & have you noticed the smaller print in the newspapers lately?There’s no point in asking anyone to read aloud, everyone speaks in such low tones, and I can hardly hear them.The material in clothes is so skimpy now, to, especially around the waist & hips, it is almost impossible to reach down to put on my shoes.Even people are changing; they are so much younger than they used to be when I was their age. On the other hand, people my own age are so much older looking than I am.I ran into an old classmate the other day & he had aged so much that he didn’t recognize me. I got to thinking about the poor thing the other day while I was combing my hair &, in so doing, I glanced at my own reflection. Confound it! They don’t even make good mirrors anymore!!
