roxywrote big post, deleted it.
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?
In much much happier and fandom related biz--![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif)

8/27/07 04:13 pm (UTC)I should remind you that you're the person that makes me not afraid of old age. You're the person that made me realize I don't have to wear beige and watch HGTV for seven hours a day as I fold my family's underwear. You're yourself, not a 50-something year old woman, you know? You're going to be that way for the rest of your life. You're Roxy, fer cryin' out loud.
Besides, the young guys may not notice you cause you're older, but hell, you're probably having better sex than all of them combined, anyway, so what's it matter? (that's the line I use to comfort myself when my roommates get hit on instead of me. it works because it's so true)
Anyway, hope that helps. I'm taking an early lunch now...even though I just got done a late breakfast...office livin' is gonna be hard on me, as you can see...
