Congratulations! Yes, growing old ain't for sissies (upper 50's here).

Life is still good though. =)
Interesting that you brought this up. The other day I was watching a "Back To School" sale commercial and started feeling old. It bothered me for about thirty seconds until I realized, I DON'T HAVE TO GO BACK!

I'm sitting here hanging out with you fine people, watching some baseball, looking out my window at the awe of Lake Superior. If I was in school I'd be crammed into a stuffy room in some uncomfortable desk being force fed some stupid Algebra equation that I will NEVER NEED TO KNOW EVER AGAIN. After that I have getting the piss beat out of me from the school bully to look forward too followed by an impotent gym teacher telling me I'll never amount to anything because I can't climb a stupid rope.

Thanks. I'll pass. I'm feeling old, and I'm LOVING IT! :D
My son started kindergarten last week, my daughter started 3rd grade yesterday. It's kind of weird because they both go to the same school. But yeah I do feel old sometimes. Although it is kind of cool that My kids and I will all hit a milestone age at the same time. The year I turn 50 my daughter will turn 21 and my son will turn 18.

I've been gaming since 1989 (Amiga 500) and my first child is due in less than a month. I mention old commercials or games and my younger gaming friends just stare blankly at me like I'm some demented old rambling man.

Awesome! :D
August seems early to be starting school?
The first time I felt old was when I thought Sam & Max aren't funny anymore.

I live up in the North East of Scotland, Peterhead. A nice shit hole junky town if there ever was one.
Parenthood is very surreal. My daughter starts her first day of school next Monday and I think I'm more nervous than she is. It's strange to see kids develop.
