Default Middle age

So.............Just wondering, what do you guys think is "middle age"
I got to thinking about this yesterday. I'm going to be hitting the big 45 this summer. My family and friends laugh when I say I'm middle age. It seems they think middle age is older.
I doubt I'll make 90, so if you ask me, I'm past middle age.
Just wondering what you guys think?

I feel middle age is when you've done all the dumb stuff, yell at stupid teens, and look forward to a beer and your favorite chair.

LMAO

I actually did not think about it that way.

My thoughts were more along the line of watching them fall through or off the table.

No pasty white skin, no spare tire and DEFINITELY NO COMB-OVERS!:-?

Middle age is when you show your 11yr old son some of your skateboard tricks from when you were younger and you bust your a$$.Then when he's not looking you sneak into the house for some ibuprophen.And when he's asleep you get into the hot tub to soak the aches away.

Yep, I'm middle aged at 44.
