He's right, of course: I really do go to bed by eleven and I really don't want to go out clubbing and I really do prefer my generation's music to all others, except for Frank Sinatra and Dean Martin who I always have time for. Not only that, but I've been known to take a stool softener--sue me. Besides, the worst thing you can do is try to fake it. Be your age, dammit! It's embarrassing when I see my peers clinging to their lost youth. I want to run up to them and shout, "It's not working!" For example, lately Hillary has been letting her hair grow long. If it's a ploy to hide the scars of an impending face lift, all is forgiven and I envy her courage, otherwise she should just take a good look in the mirror and see that her flowing blond locks just don't cut it....no pun intended.
Yesterday I had most of my hair buzzed off. Now, instead of matronly and dowdy I look trendy and maybe a tad gay. Either one is better than grasping.
Every time I have a witness at a depo who is asked their age, before they answer I play the "older or younger than me game," and I'm amazed when they say they were born the same year or after, cuz they look soooo much older than me!!!
ReplyDeleteDeneb says: who cares how old someone is? She should do something about the eye bags maybe.
ReplyDeleteand the ruffles are wrong. and too much jewelry.
