I used to think something like this would be ridiculous, but I’m now at the age where I’ve had to back into my age using the current year minus my birth year to make sure I’m the age I think I am.

The other week I had to give the birth year of my son. The info had fallen out of my head and I couldn't for the life of me do the math on the spot.

He's 3 and a half years old.
