So who's aging? Me? You don't look it, but could you possibly be eligible for a senior discount?
I'm riding the bus, hanging on to the strap, minding my own business when a young man glances in my direction and jumps up to offer me his seat. How nice, I think, people must be getting politer. Politer and politer. A young nephew offers me his arm on a snowy sidewalk. A coworker reaches to take a box and ask where I want it--and it's not even all that heavy.
Then a kid at McDonalds charges me for a senior coffee without even asking if I deserve it. My first real senior moment. I smile and say thank you.
