Is this a sign of old age?

I can't believe that I'm posting about this experience... but it is quite funny. A few weeks ago, I was home with my kids. It was late. I needed to drop off a box of shirts to a friend of mine to take to work the next day. Stacie was gone at Ashley's softball game and I was home with the rest of the kids. I decided to quickly run the box over to my friend's house. I took the suburban and headed over to his house. I drove into my friend's driveway, and quickly hopped out of the suburban, leaving it running, and ran up to the door. I knocked on the door. I glanced at the suburban, and it was moving towards the garage!!!! I apparently left the car in drive. I quickly ran to try and jump in the suburban before it hit the garage door. I ran around the front of the suburban. I quickly realized I was not going to make it. While in front of the suburban, I began pushing it back. Yes... this is true.. I was pushing on the front of my chevy suburban while it was in drive. Well, you can guess what happened.... The suburban pinned my into my friends garage. So here, I am pinned between the garage door and the suburban. Luckily, I had my cell phone on me. I called my friend, "Dan, quick come out front!!!" Dan was wondering why the stress in my voice. He came outside to find me pinned by my suburban. He jumped in the suburban and put it in reverse. My body indent remains in his garage door. I came away with a bruised knee. When Stacie returned home I told her, "Stacie, I got in an accident." I told here what happen.... she said, "You cost me so much money." As I get older, I just might cost her a ton of money.
