Listen to this man. Seven years of college, you know. Trying to reason with 2020 and, now, 2022.

On Gettin' Old: Broom Hilda Gets It, Too

From the September 11, 2016, Broom Hilda comic strip.

1.  Broom Hilda is looking at a calendar for September 2016, tacked up on a tree.  She squints at it and says:  "Mine enemy!"
2.  Looking sad:  "The older I get the quicker time seems to pass."

3.  A picture of her as a baby:  "When I was little, a month lasted forever."
4.  "Now it's as if the pages of the darn calendar turn continually."

5.  "With each flipping of those pages my life comes closer to  the final chapter."
6.  All of a sudden, the pages of the calendar start jumping off:  "YIPE!!  NO!"

7.  Gaylord, the vulture looks around the side of the tree holding an air blower and says:  "These new electric leaf blowers sure are quiet."  Broom Hilda is running off and yelling:  "I'm too young to die!!"

Time sure flies when you're having fun.
