Man, I would just say that I'm learning to fly, but I don't have wings.
And coming down--it's the hardest thing.
Nice one Tom.

I'll be 29 in July! For a few years I made the mistake of rounding up and somehow thought I was older than I was for a couple of years there. Oops!
Cheers,
Ember

I feel every bit of my almost 71 years, but spending time in a war zone and 3 wives will age you quickly... And I am far from healthy with ailments that are the kind that get progressively worse with age.
Not ONE complaint about my life though. It has been an amazing ride.
So far!! I ain't done yet, and when it IS time to leave I will go out kicking and screaming, just like I did my whole life.

Ember, Ha ha ha ha ha!! You MUST tell me how you did that. I want to do it in reverse!!! Haha, my mistake was as soon as the new year would hit I'd say I was a year older, and at some point added on some extra years when my birthday would actually hit because I made the mistake of referring to myself as older 6 months ahead of schedule and forgetting I wasn't actually that old yet. I managed to tack on an extra three years before I realized the mistake I'd made, and the only reason why I figured it out was because my sister is two years older and she just turned 30 in May last year. We all have our moments ahah.  I think what's maybe slightly worse than that is that I round up other people's ages too and they also get confused too. It seems contagious!
Cheers,
Ember

Just wait until you add 40 to that, like most of us, and see what happens.

If it's any consolation, i used to do exactly the same. Maybe that was why I started the number-base thing instead.

If it's any consolation, i used to do exactly the same. Maybe that was why I started the number-base thing instead. I appreciate that, haha! Someone once told me that technically speaking when you hit your next birthday, you're actually concluding that number of rotations around the sun. So if you just "turned 30" you're not entering your 30th year, but just finished it. So maybe it wasn't so wrong of us to round up after all!
Cheers,
Ember

I am just trying to get a rough idea of what the average age of or participants would be on the forum. I truly don't know.
So, for those willing to play, what's your age?
I'll start. 50 Daaaaaang dude! You're still a puppy! Without getting too specific, I'm sneakin' up on a new decade, and I've been retired for 7 years.

Exactly! I’ve always thought in terms of the year you are within. Although the number gets more painful to consider the older one gets Then there’s the time worn notion that you are only as old as you feel and that fits Janice perfectly. She looks and acts decades younger. A super positive attitude will take you a long ways! Bud
