Yesterday's comment of the day? "Oh, wow, I thought you just said you were seventy. And I think you look really great for seventy. I mean, REALLY great for seventy."
So, what's the problem? Well, you see, I'm 43. And, um, I was in the midst of realizing I was the oldest faculty member in the room.
To be fair, it was 3:00 am, and we were in the midst of Thon, so we'd all been awake for nearly 24 hours at that point. And the comment was made by a 22 year old. And it made me laugh until I had tears streaming down my face and my stomach ached.
Quite honestly, for much of today (after two hours of sleep), I felt like I was 70.
However, I was just BORN in 1970. Hence the confusion.
(My husband finds this story hilarious. He was born in in 1959. That makes him MUCH older. Just sayin')
