Does ground coffee go bad? Or get stale?
It gets stale, because exposure to air dries out the oils that give it flavor.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

I've had a negative impression of Ashley Judd since I heard some stuff about rampant egotism on one of those charity jaunts to Africa, but my hat's off to her for the linked essay.

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

So I should just throw out the three-year-old half-empty bag of Dunkin' Donuts French Vanilla and buy some new if I want to start drinking coffee again? Okay. Thanks!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
This might solve the gimlet wars!
Welcome to the promised land. I saved you a seat.
Hey, is there current propaganda for women coming of age touting g-spot orgasms over clitoral ones, or vice versa, or really do we not have any, or they're just not important anyway, silly ladies?

40 is totally middle age. I have no intention of living to 80, so for me it is really more than middle age. I did not ream mac too much because tomorrow morning at 7am, he has blood drawn. seems like punish enough for the 10 year-old needle phobe.

Oh, shoot, I knew there was something I wanted to do with all those limes. Cordial! And I just gave up and juiced them all yesterday. Oh well, there'll be more and this time I clipped the recipe.
I thought the latest thinking was that the g-spot was actually part of the clitoris, or all connected, or something. Advancements in anatomical knowledge, 3-D imagery?

40 is TOTALLY middle age. All of the annoying body going to shit stuff is happening now that I am turning 40.
I hate it.

I'm 48, and I totally intend to live to 96, so I'm middle-aged. That's okay with me. I'm also fat, gray-haired, and covered with cat hair, so I'm living the cliche!

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger
I will be middle aged in August, then. But most people think I'm about 33.
Good thing I just bought my first bikini today. I found an UNDERWIRE TOP for $6.98!!!! And it fit, and a friend gave me a too-small for her now little black swim skirt and I will be baring my whole damn torso this summer.
Scary, yet I can't WAIT for the pools to open!

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.
This 42 YO totally agrees.
I was chatting with my coworkers today, one is 26, and the other is 33. We hang out at work a lot, and get along really well. And then sometimes I am reminded that I am older than they are, like the time I realized that I started university 25 years ago. But today, the 26 year old started complaining about having to hang out with a 19 year old on the weekend. Considering she and I went to a movie the previous weekend, I laughed.
