OverviewNo-nonsense, wryly self-deprecating, and totally persuasive, You're Old, I'm Old...Get Used to It! unabashedly exalts the virtues of aging. Virginia Ironside wants you to know that getting old is a good thing-and not in that dreadful “sixty is the new forty” way. At sixty-five, she has no interest in pretending to be young and neither should you. Virginia celebrates all the “issues” that she and her fellow oldies embrace, including: • Talking about ailments (and the fabulous meds that come with them) • Grandchildren (the reward you get for not killing your children) • Wisdom (random disorganized knowledge you get to put a fancy label on because you're old) Full Product DetailsAuthor: Virginia IronsidePublisher: Penguin Putnam Inc Imprint: New American Library Dimensions: Width: 13.30cm , Height: 1.30cm , Length: 20.20cm Weight: 0.184kg ISBN: 9780452297432ISBN 10: 0452297435 Pages: 224 Publication Date: 18 January 2012 Recommended Age: From 18 years Audience: General/trade , General Format: Paperback Publisher's Status: Active Availability: Awaiting stock The supplier is currently out of stock of this item.
