Everything looks good from here... Yes. Yes, this is a fertile land, and we will thrive. We will rule over all this land, and we will call it... 'This Land.' I think we should call it 'your grave!' Ah, curse your sudden but inevitable betrayal! Ha ha HA! Mine is an evil laugh! Now die! Oh, no, God! Oh, dear God in heaven!

It probably means a bathroom like the house I just moved from, where the toilet is in a separate room, i.e., a water closet.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Is that so unusual? I know people suck in their use of "unique," but still.

Anyway, in truth, in my head only 50s are middle aged, but I don't think that makes sense, so....

I do! Mainly because I'm in my 40s, granted, but...

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I don't know how old middle aged is!

Hey, you introduced the term, not me. I was just wondering how old (or not) said Mexican gentleman might be.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

It's okay, Jesse. I'm fine with being middle aged, I just worry sometimes about when that midlife crisis is going to hit.

Any ideas??

No doubt someone has already said it, but a bidet?

Our wings are not tired.

Sondheim is the only context where I like Bernadette Peters. For realz.

Oh, I think mine may be imminent with my 40th.

Msbelle, when you have cats those dust bunnies can form in minutes. I vacuumed a week ago, but if you looked in the corners of my living room, you'd think it had been months.

Am making cupcakes.

I would say the creepy guy in the park was in his 50s, but maybe he was younger -- he had bad skin and teeth, which possibly muddied the waters.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!

Thanks for the birthday wishes.

I'm 46 today . If midlife crisis means something as mild as reassessment -- than I am having one. But it isn't age related, it is more tied to the volatility of the last year.

I'm off t an Aries Fest dinner. which does not include DH. which feels weird.

Also, for the record, I didn't really think the guy was creepy until I went to shake his hand, and had to take mine back before he was done with it.
