Old age, modern style

Just sayin' 1 Minute

I stood in my kitchen and pulled out my phone.

I stared at the home screen with its display of all the apps I use regularly.

For the life of me, I couldn’t figure out why I had pulled the phone out of my pocket.

This must be the 2026 version of walking into a room and forgetting why I walked into that room.

  1. You’re going alright then there. Being you’re about a generation in age above me in age, I hope I can manage around as well, if I ever get old like you. Ha, just kidding.
