No one by either of those names!
Thanks, Jesse!
We have to see the chimp playing hockey! That's hilarious! The ice is so slippery, and, and monkeys are all irrational. We have to see this!

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
I think it starts about 5 years older than whatever my current age is at any given time.
My brother just turned 45 and I got him a funny book entitled something like Old Age Is 15 Years Older Than You Are Now in addition to his gift. As a pick-me-up. Or pick-him-up. Or to snark. Definitely one of those.

Our wings are not tired.
I remember turning 30 and someone told me I was "now middle-aged" and I wanted to sock him in the face. I didn't though. Because that's no way to treat the elderly (that's what I told him).

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Matt Damon, subjectively, is way younger than George Clooney, who is on the young side, subjectively, of middle-aged. At 42 and 51, that sentence has almost all true words.

I look more rad than Lutheranism
I've been having the debate with my family recently about when middle age starts. I guess we came down on 45, but I could still make an argument for 40. I've sort of decided we should reclaim "middle aged."
Now that I'm 40, I feel like "middle-aged" should be, like, 53. (I picked that arbitrarily.) Because my brain feels like it's 25. Seriously.
That said, my physical state is decrepit and way past "middle-aged" and well into Old Fart stage. (I say this as I lie in bed on a heating pad for my back, full of flexiril and painkillers. Stoopid back.)
So if you average together my "mental" age and my decrepit Old Fart physical age, I guess it all works back out to...middle aged. Dang.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
I read Ashley Judd's article this morning, and then I read people's reactions to the article, and then I wanted to give Ashley Judd a baseball bat and a list of targets.

What, the comments? Definitely don't look them up.
