My favorite trick is to write down a phone number with no indication to whom it belongs.  Later when I find the number, I'm tempted to call it to solve the mystery.

DB does that.  There have been a number of times when He has called my friends because I called them from His phone and He doesn't recognize the number on the call log, so He hits "dial" and ends up having a discussion with them as if He meant to.

i think age is harder on a woman. Men do seem to age better, although black woman seem to age the sexiest. I don't know why.

My girlfriend and i were discussing age tonight. We came to the conclusion that the sexiest thing about a person is their absolute un-desire to need anyone. someone who is happy in themselves. i feel very blessed to be bisexual. for the treasures men overlook, us women can see plain as day. of course keeping healthy equals happiness and attractiveness but isn't ego and confidence half the reason us women fall for men? It is the lack of need, the confidence and assurety in their own happiness and state of being. I see the same qualities making a woman just as sexy

this said, i aim for "cute" not sexy...cute is eternal:)

Just a week ago Master and I were bitching about the cost of concert tickets compared to when we were kids.  Master declared "It's official!  We have become our parents!"  I was horrified!

But I figure every day above dirt is a good day!

..all of a sudden, I find three strands of silver at My right temple.



I had a young person who has know me for many moons say to me the other day "Did you get highlights?" and wink!  Her mom went completely silver by the time she was 40 and looks fantastic so it's not a thing to worry or be surprised about. 
I just laughed and said no, I've decided to go au natural after decades of coloring.  I like my "silver streak"

The only thing that sucks about growing old for me is that it gets harder for me to do the long work hours like I used to.  I'm not old but I'm not 25 anymore.  Other than that...and the hot flashes that have started ...getting older isn't half bad.  I'm working on My Life Part 2.

I do all of the above! 

I am the queen of post-it notes at the office.

I use my cell phone to remind me of things, I send myself texts, emails, and I used to leave myself memo messages on my answering machine.  I also tape notes to myself on the bathroom mirror, the dashboard of my car, my purse, my tote bag, and the tv screen in my bedroom.

What I hate is when I only write down a snipet of something that makes perfect sense to me at the time, and I have no clue what it means later. 



Last time I talked to Thing Two she said she was good except she couldn't see through the post its you put on her forehead. Use the small ones, next time, Ok?

The only downside to growing old (this bunny is 45 next week!) is the fire risk from the candles on the cake


but the heat generated from all those candles help saves on this week's heating expenses LOL

I'd like me some new cartilage in my knees, and level nipples, but that's about it.

omg, this made me LOL, since my nipples are level, and unfortunately, they're also almost level with my knees. Whovever said big boobs were a blessing?

Not me, Pure...my nipples are going south, I got gray on both temples and my nieces and nephews are calling me Ma'am.

The other day, the checkout clerk called me Ma'am...definitely a sign that I am really getting old.

Someone just pass over the scotch...I am far too young to being this damn old...

I'm skipping gray and going white. Which means I can't dye my hair red and more because as the stylist said "red and white makes pink".

Walks into thread, looks around for something, hesitates, feels pockets for glasses, fails to find them on her head.
Finally admits, "i can't remember what i came in here for."
