You know you're old when...

Your "kid" turns 49. Yep, today marks our daughter making 49 trips around the sun. She won't read this, but happy birthday, kid.

That is all...

You get superpowers when you get old, like invisibility.

You walk into a room that has a buncha hotties and you immediately become invisible.

When out in public and random 50+ YO women smile at me. This happened in my 20s but took a hiatus for 30 years. All widows?

I realized I was "older" when I caught myself looking at the mother rather than the daughter. And of course this was some decades ago.
