63 Things About Me: #46 - My Superpower - Invisibility

Not me, but you get the idea

I am about to turn 63 this month (hence the 63 things about me). And I have learned one thing above almost all others. Old men (and women) are invisible to much of the world.

I used to be able to joke and flirt with anyone. Now I am ignored if not openly dismissed. I can site a zillion examples, but why? You get it.

I am now as invisible as I was when I was a teenager. But then it was dread about the world, hesitancy from bizarre parents (see # 47 below: Deanna) and self-consciousness. Now it is just age.

I don't like it.
