Why children can’t stop wondering about my age, who can tell? Perhaps everything about myself is mismatched?
Miss J., how old are you?
I’m too old to remember. Maybe 186.
(Silence) You’re kidding… No one can live that long!
Oh! I didn’t know that. Maybe 99 then. What do you think?
Since you’re still teaching, you’re not yet retired and you’re not yet 65.
Uh-huh…
And I think you’re not yet 50.
And why do you think so?
Coz you don’t have gray hair.
Duh!
