When did it happen? I was so sure it would not that I was not paying attention. I got old. Old. I was so sure it wouldn't happen.
It is real. I got old. I can't do things that I used to do. I can make the movements, but I can't DO them. Things don't work. Not like they used to.
Quickness. Not there. Movement - not without pain and major repercussions.
One day it was here. Now it is gone.
And it is not coming back. Ever.
They said it would happen. I never believed it.
They were surprised it hadn't happened yet. I was sure that was because it was not going to happen.
And when does this wisdom thing kick in?
When do I get that?

I love the passing of time.
I don't know who came up with this description of the effects of age, but I'm sure it was a guy:
"All my limber parts are getting stiff, and the stiff parts limber."
