this icon is just for the cuteness

Am I boring? I'm afraid I'm boring. I've been driving Mr. insane, worrying that I've become less attractive in my old age. Sort of wattley and flabby and droopy. He insists that I'm still cute but what does he know? Everywhere I go, guys from eighteen to forty are like, excuse me ma'am, do you need help crossing the street, lifting your purse, crawling off that curb--what the fuck ever--I am, to paraphrase Eliot Weston, invisible to teenage boys.

SIIIIIIIIIIIIIGH.

Why am I waiting until 53 to freak about turning 50?

I hear ya. Every time I look in the mirror these days, I cringe -- and I've been taking more care with my appearance this year than I have since I was in my 20's.

I think a lot of it is psychological. But on days when my legs hurt and it's hard for me to walk, I do feel old. And I probably act old too.

Old broads unite! *hugs*

*clings* I know! And I know I'm acting old too, it's such a shame!

Must tell self, I'm still cute--*thinks hard*
