are you planning to lie, Smaug-like, on top of a pile of aging Buffistas?
Only if everyone committed to being soft and squishy.
Sorry, Captain. I'm real sorry. I shoulda kept better care of her. Usually she lets me know when something's wrong. Maybe she did, I just wasn't paying attention...

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

Baby, I got this.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
I managed not to listen to my husband's conversation with his parents about protests at college campuses, which is good, because now I don't have to wonder if his parents have ever given a shit about antisemitism before FOX started yelling.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

I've been training my whole life for this!

That is so not a problem for me.

genuinely can't imagine not working. The structure of a job is good for me.
I said very similar words to my husband over an early dinner at our pub-like place just now as I was recounting the retirement convo from the board. Like, I'm on a staycation this week, and I decided to play it be ear... not my best decision. I, too, benefit from structure. Thank goodness Shir is coming this weekend to shake me out of my sloth. For a visitor, I can plan and do! Just me? Eh.
My mom was a teacher, and she retired at, maybe 70, but really only because she just got fed up with students being ill-mannered and the administration being, well, an administration. Mentally and physically, she could have done 75 easy. And would have. I am hoping for the same, honestly.
A few of my friends are retiring early-ish. I'm surprisingly not feeling envious. Like, bully for them, and let.me.live vicariously through you and occasionally join you in your travels! Except.my camping friends. I will not join them. But I will happily ooh and ahh over their pictures.

Oh, and, yeah, soft and squishy is my jam, fear not.

Aging Buffistas: committed to the soft and squishy lifestyle. (Although on that note, I'm off to lift weights. Any muscle I build just lurks beneath the softness and squishyness.)

Though we be soft and squishy, we be strong.
