Proof that I'm going to be the hip old lady on the block someday.

[Not Afraid]

Look. I AM the hip old lady on the block. So, shut up.

AND, you're ALSO the crazy cat lady! You've got me beat by at least two critters.

Ah, NA, one minute you're the strange ,but endearing, hip old lady with a lot of cats.

The next minute you're the wimpering and frightened, down-on-the-floor with a broken hip old lady with a lot of cats who are suddenly out of food and looking at you lying there, all helpless, and trying to figure out what would be the most efficient way to strip your brittle bones of their meat. Their purrs, oh so kindly and sweet in the past, begin to sound threatening, "Purrrrrrrmeat. Meatpurrrrrrrrrrr."

And just like that, you give the term "food giver" an entirely different meaning.

Jack is quite fat. I bet he'd be tasty!

EH, you're in your twenties. Cut the crap and just kiss the guy all ready.

No, no. I have no romantic interest in this guy, whatsoever. He's a sweet pumpkin dear boy, but my feelings towards him are almost sisterly. It's strictly platonic. He's not my Rob Wilco.

And I know I'm not old, Tref, but I do feel more aged and tired than my 29 years sometimes. Probably because I sit at a computer all day and get so little exercise. Tired, tired. However my body feels, though, I still feel very, very young. Too young, even. Haven't done enough. Haven't learned enough. But I'll be 100 and still feeling that way.

Then again, on those days - most days even - when I accept that the meaning of life really is 42, I feel just fine and dandy.

So, can it!

Done and done.

I say, do not be worried, dear EH, do not be worried.

And yes, let's go have fun with our minty fresh selves!

Face it EH: you're old. Get used to it, get over it and get on with your life.
