Natter 31 But Looks 29

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

I want to buy a goth arm doily. I imagine it as batwing lace tied with a pink ribbon. You use them as sleeve ruffles.

I love it.

Jilli, I'd maybe place you at 31, but only because I tend to skew everyone who could vaguely be a peer as 2 years older than me.

Peers will be peers/and youth will have its fling.

In other age news, I'm the oldest woman in our Measure For Measure cast. 'Tis odd. There's at least 5 men who are older than me, though, so I don't feel too decrepit.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

It's part of my voting criteria (no talking barnyad animals, no mice and only a handful of spinach books).

No mice? Rats of NIMH! Ben and Me! Mouse On A Motorcycle!

Allyson, like -t I also had the hearing loss due to blockage and it cleared up as soon as it was cleaned out. Did you have a cold recently?

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why? Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

I'm complete crap at judging other people's ages, so I want to know how other people fare at it.

This is me. My margin of error tends to be something like 5 years in either direction. I blame Hollywood's consistently casting 20-somethings as teenagers for throwing off my scale. (Because it certainly can't be my fault.)

33 Tops.

Hmm. I'm guessing Jilli is thirtyish.

Hee! I'm 36.

I am also not clicking the link Cindy posted, because I am wary.

I've given up trying to guess the ages of other people in the local goth scene, because I'm *always* wrong. I keep looking at them and saying "Waitaminute, you're not old enough to drink?! Are you?"

If I only had a brain...

It's the clown white that does it.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Cindy's link made me long for the irritating song about the perceived size of the world, after all.

Yes. No Mice. See. None of those.

Coding and Sleeping

Hee! I'm 36.

I was going to guess 31-32.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

33 Tops

Would have been my guess too.

I think you and Pete should market yourselves to Coppertone as living proof that staying out of the sun really can take years off your appearance.

Good call. That's going to be waking me up nights for some time to come.
