once I actually did it I was like "what's the big deal?" I guess it was either ego or trying to fend off the inevitable and refusing to concede to aging

Not even old, but just older. But I remember back in the 90s making fun of Sammy Sosa for missing some games because he had injured himself sneezing apparently. And I was all tough like "What a pussy."

But now sometimes when I sneeze, I have to sit there for a few seconds and make sure everything is in working order before I move.

No lie. I have to text myself that I closed the garage door or I'll drive all the way back.


We set up a Ring camera on the back wall of the garage . if the door is open you can use the app to close it.

Son, you got to go full Fred Sanford, I have reading glasses in every drawer, widow sill truck and shop. I may not remember what I was doing but at least I can see.

When I stayed with my grandparents, everybody else would go to bed and my grandfather would still be up, sitting at the kitchen table smoking cigarettes and thinking. I used to wonder what he thought about. Now I know.

Sunscreen when sunning


You might want to rethink this. Humans need sunlight and didn't need the poison lotion that makes big pharma billions. Just research historical cancer stats and research cancer incidence in hot climate countries.
