I finally dredged up a fuck to give and colored my long gray roots this morning, right before my doctor's appointment. Not that he'd have cared, it was just an incentive.
I apparently looked 18-21 from age 12 until I was in my late 20s, judging from peoples' reactions and how often I got carded. The last time I got carded for alcohol, I was 31. But age catches up. Now, as long as I keep my hair dyed, my niece tells me I look 35. I know I look older with it all gray, so vanity compels me to keep dyeing it. But lack of fucks will catch up with me, too, and eventually I'll quit.
People have always told me I look young(er than whatever age I was), but I think at least some of that is because I am short.
Now that I think of it, bikeshedding is probably the real basis for many of my decisions. That might not be for the best, but it sure feels right often enough.
Because I'm tall, I looked older than I was as a teenager but have looked young since 30ish. My parents and at least one grandmother have also tended to look young for their ages, so. But really, what does any age "look like"?? If my mother didn't dye her hair, I think people wouldn't be so surprised that she is 70.
Oh my god, he is so ADORABLE.
According to the gothlings on Tumblr, there is NO WAY I can be 46, I don't look it, have I already become the Vampire Witch Queen and bathe in people's blood?
I think 50 is when I'm going to start the process of getting my hair to all pink with a few black streaks. There should be enough gray/silver by then.
I was just thinking this morning that i have reached an age where having blue hair means something different. Or might, anyway,depending on the shade.
Oh my god, he is so ADORABLE.
When the video was still available on YouTube, I showed it to Lilly, and she promptly laughed and laughed and laughed, all incredulous like.
So for Itty-Steve they just looked at pictures of Sprogling Chris?
Timelies all!
I've looked younger than my actual age for most of my life. Don't know if I still do, mostly because I don't know what 47 is supposed to look like.
