Seeing (Aging) Things

Today, saw what I thought, was the same older guy at three different spots around town.
It was probably three different guys but at the instant of each sighting, I thought otherwise.
Maybe it's just that all of us old geezers look the same?
At the least, it seemed noteworthy. 

Flipping through records in the 'Indie Rock' section at the record store and getting excited after every twenty or so records.
Not because it was a new release by a musician I enjoy and collect but rather because it was a recognizable name.
It seems like I'm becoming more and more separated from popular culture leaving me feeling un-hip.
I tend to think it's a case of this particular store catering to a younger crowd. 
But when the owner said: "Long time, no see." ....... 
Well maybe it's because I feel the need to constantly check online reference sites for most of what I see in there.
Seems pretty simple ..... If he wants to see me visit more often, then have more stuff that I am tempted to take home.
