Of course, I'm much, much older than that, since we elves have a lifespan of approximately 1000 years (duodecimal to decimal.)
But in rl, even my doctor is surprised that I vividly remember ration stamps in WW2, President Franklin Roosevelt, and a rather homely, lanky teen-age guy named Frank Sinatra singing "That Old Black Magic" while bobby-soxers swooned. I practically have to arm-wrestle to get any senior discounts at restaurants. I got carded until I was 32 when trying to buy beer or vote. As for behavior, I grew old, but decided a long, long time ago not to grow up! (And thanks for the compliment.)
