Yes, I am a Senior Citizen

I was up at 6 this morning; wide awake and ready to roar. You see it is my birthday. Yes, I am 65 years old today. I never thought I would reached this age and neither did my parents. In fact, from my early antics and curiosities that led me into the most ticklish pickles they didn’t even feel it necessary to plan for a college education for me! But, against all odds I am here and have had one fantastic life! And am looking forward to a bit more fun here before my next, and they tell me the greatest, adventure: going to the Other Side. So picture my chagrin while reading the N&R I found the following in Annie’s Mail:Yes, I am a Senior Citizen
I am the life of the party even if it lasts until 8 pm.
I’m very good at opening child proof caps with a hammer.
I’m usually interested in getting home before I get to where I'm going.
I’m smiling all the time because I can’t hear a word you're saying.
I’m very good at telling stories; over and over and over...
I’m so cared for: long-term care, eye care, dental care, Medicare
I’m not at all grouchy! I just don’t like traffic, waitingcrowds, lawyers, loud music, unruly kids, commercials, religious zealots, loud cell phone users, barking dogs, politicians and a few other things I can’t remember.
I’m wrinkled, saggy, lumpy and lame. And that’s just my right leg.
I wondering if you’re only as old as you feel then how could I be alive at 150?
I’m also wondering if you’re only as old as you think then how could this 30 year old woman be trapped in this 65 year old body?
I’m a walking storeroom of facts, but sometimes I forget where I put the key to the storeroom door.
Yes, I am a citizen and I think I am having the time of my life. Author Unknown
This had to have been a vicious plot by Hamas, Hezbollah or maybe even GW since he seems to be to some American's #1 Bad Boy. At any rate, one of those sadistic plots to dampen my spirits and remind me of all the things I am trying to forget; for at least today. BB
