    My hair is turning white! And those little white hairs are wiry and a coarse. My natural hair is blonde so no one but me is noticing this. Oh well. And I think things are getting better with age.

    It would if those hairs would lay down with rest of my hair, but no they have to be unruly and stick out. Damn apostate hairs.

    They say it beats the alternative.

    Well... some things I do better than I used to.

    Some things I do different.. I wish my knees and back held up better... 35 or 40 years of work is telling at this point. There was hardly a day working that was not spent climbing, walking or crawling for me. I filed taxes the first time at 13... my folks taught us to work early.

    I am more patient at some things ... and a lot pissier about other things.

    Bi-focals are the work of the devil.

    I hope I keep changing into someone I like better as time goes on.

    Ugh. I wear progressive lenses and have since I was 45. At least they don't have lines and you can see at three distances. One thing I hate is having to hold my head tilted backwards to read the computer monitor. I work on a PC all day at work. Sometimes I get plumb dizzy.

    I hope I keep changing into someone I like better as time goes on.

    Me, too.

    It sucky...

    elaboration. At 22 half your life is subjectively over. That is to say, the "half" of your life after 22 goes by as fast as the preceeding 22 did. Because we all remember when summer break felt like a year in itself... now we remember our last summer break probably felt like 2 weeks or so.

    This past year has felt like a long time as I've gone through it, only because of the severe mental anguish experienced, but looking back the tiime really has flown. In september I'll be 22 and my life will subjectively be half over. I did nothing. Am nothing. Have nothing. That's okay though. I am me, and me is a good person. Maybe one day I'll have someone to share myself with and have them share themselves in turn. Sounds good to me. mmmmhmmmm.

    Actually tonight I pondered the whole aging thing when looking into the mirror I noticed some aging in certain places... and realised from now on I will only notice more of these sorts of things and less of the things that make me think of life as something taken for granted. Of course I was a freak among my contemporaries in my never wishing to turn 16 to drive, or 19 to smoke and drink, or 18 to buy porn and all that other stuff. I wanted to stay under 10 forever, sort of like Peter Pan. I realise that being a child at heart is the best way to live and has nothing to do with outward appearances. People can tell right away those who are young at heart.

    I'm having a good time. Sure, there are changes going on with my body but it doesn't bother me--too much.

    I do miss companionship. I think I would like it very much if I found a fun companion to go with me to the museums. And maybe do a little kissing on the side.
