Today, day after me birthday, or birfday as I'd say to Noemi, I have two answers to that reductive question (or at least people use the answer to reduce who you are to something they can conceive), "How old are you?"
"I'm closer to 100 than I am to 0," I'll answer. Or "I'm old enough I could fall down and die from something I had no idea I was going to fall down and die from."
I prefer the first answer.
Best, Crg
