Mid-Life Crisis?

So, in my bio, I describe myself as "a young horse named Boyfriend".  And I am going to ask a non-horse like but very human like question:

At what age should I consider myself middle aged?

I'm going to be nine this summer. Nine doesn't seem so very old, although I've been to a few weird places and seen lots of things, and sometimes my body does feel a little older than it used to. Mother seems to think that with my not-so-good joint I might not live to be thirty or so, like most horses should. I know I can hide my problem from the wolves quite well, so I don't know what she thinks will happen to me. My girlfriend Jeanie is 32 this year, and she still looks great. And if a wolf does come along, I'll push Bert or the donkey towards it instead of letting him catch me!

But Mother likes accuracy, and she thinks I need to change my bio to more accurately reflect my age. Or just omit my age. Hmmm...

You think it's easy being a successful horse with a blog and everything, but it is work.

This is stressful.

I need some cookies...

  2. Can different parts of me be different ages? I'm mostly 5, but my leg is 20, and my soul is eternal, which isn't really an age, I guess.

    My hair is just a few days old, because Mother keeps cutting it all off...
