Today AZ and I ran around to take care of some shopping errands (this was, happily, painless, unlike my usual anticipation of shopping that doesn't involve technology).

One of our stops was the local Pearl Art Center for some gifts (and new fountain pen ink for me, as the stuff I have seems to clog unnecessarily). At the checkout, the student discount query took an unexpected turn...

"Do you have a student... or, er, faculty? i.d. for a discount?"

I guess my youthful looks are fading....

Of course, when I look in the mirror, I still see myself as the 21 year old I once was. No faculty member he!
