Certainly hope I didn’t come off as “older than thou” I was trying to inject some levity, or perhaps I was drunk. It *is* all relative and there are lots of milestones along the way that are little temporal reality checks. Having spent decades in school, I remember first feeling old when I no longer had class to attend or the seasonal rhythms of semesters & quarters. Of course people much younger than me who didn’t decide to spend a decade in grad school prob had that revelation much earlier. And I want to be clear: I’ve love love loved getting older.

While I appreciate what you’re saying, Mark, keep in mind that it’s all relative. We’re ALL aging. Even those of us who are younger than you. And when you add a decade spent in warehouses into the equation, memory loss starts in your mid-20s.

Aging? You want to talk about aging? I still give watery kisses to my loved one but we’re talking *back hair* and cholesteral tests and hairy eyebrows and weight gains that make you scratch your head and oh my god, aging? Sweetie, it’s a long road ahead. (And we’ll all do just fine

My old tour kid boyfriend and I never knew who initiated our first kiss. There was some, um, consumption and after the roof had flown off our tent/spaceship, we were rolling around on the floor making out. We were inseperable after that. Ah, post-hippie love.

“Eh? What’s that? Er, could you say that again a bit louder please, and speak into my good ear? Oh, watch out, you hit my bad knee. Have you seen my Prozac?”
