So far, I'm avoiding wrinkles, but I'm sure they'll pop up once I finish losing my weight. I've got the waddle in my neck that I really hope will be mostly gone by the end of next year, but I know that the skin will still be hanging there.
You'll fight, and you'll shag, and you'll hate each other till it makes you quiver, but you'll never be friends.

not your mom's socks.
White hair? Check. My hands looking more like my mom's every day? check.
They closed schools here. There have been mudslides down near the Schuylkill. HPF is home, in my office, writing her own version of fanfic. I'm very pleased at this development.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Bizarre cooking question for the hivemind: if I'm making suet dumplings but I don't have any suet, would I be better off substituting beef tallow, goose fat, or shortening?

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
Tallow is closer (it's just rendered shelf-stable suet), but goose fat sounds yummier anyway.

I have zero white or gray hair. Seriously. It's starting to freak me out slightly. Like, is there a wig in the attic going silver? WTF? My bro is almost entirely gray at 35 and I have NONE. Maybe he got it all.

I started going gray in high school. There is some seriously wonderful hair in the family, but in my generation I think only Sox's sister got it.

I'm going salt-and-pepper all over, but I like the way it looks when my hair is short better than its former dark appearance.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Totally! It's the only explanation I can think of.
Plus, literary.

Thrive to spite them
One of my uncles and both his daughters started going gray in their twenties. My uncle now has white hair. My cousins dye theirs.
I do not have gray hair or very many wrinkles. Although I'm getting creases from my shoulders in a v along my chest. I don't remember when my parents started going gray but I have great genetics when it comes to wrinkles and aging. I can still pass for being my mid twenties.
