Hmmm Well, my forties and fifties

Now provide distant but kinda fond memories.

The recently past sixties are nearer

The memories clearer.

New genetically linked diagnoses

And inevitable prognoses

Mean my geriatric years are now in train;

There's nowt wrong with my brain

But my bits are indeed sagging,

Support wear is preferable to having a tuck...

But, my dears, I don't give a flying fuck!

My, but don’t I feel fortunate. At 76, I do not have body parts making noise as I walk, though surely, I watch *where* my steps take me very carefully. I have no chronic aches and pains, do not take prescription meds, and can still “run” across a road to avoid oncoming vehicles, though I would surely be beat by a sloth in that race…

Damn...are you a vampire or something? 😆 <---that's just jealousy talking.

Just want to point out that Jason is in his SIXTH decade ffs. Maybe you can remind him.

Thanks for sharing!!!

Jason is quite aware of this, but since he barely remembers the 1970s, he doesn't count it. That's also my strategy for the 2030s and beyond. &:^)

Thats a tactic I hadn’t thought of!! ...When I turned 50 I was equally stunned. BUT I gotta say my 40s ROCKED. Bet yours will too Wild Thing!@

Sorry to blow your five decade theory, Jason.

You have finished 5;

you are now in your 6th decade.

The more you sit

The less you're fit

If you want to keep groovin

You got to keep movin.

As I get dressed to head to the YMCA,

I realize you're right, sitting around in dismay.

5 decades of fuckery are now complete,

Here comes #6, to kick me in the seat. &:^)

When I'm sitting around for a long time, I get up and walk around my apt. for at least 2 to 5 minutes.

I read in a science newsletter that even 2 min. of walking after every meal makes a difference. No props, no clothing change, no having to look at extremely physically fit people, you get it.

Robin and Jason, thanks for a most enjoyable, hilarious couple of posts! Both had me cracking up, which is something that we always need! I remember when I turned 70 as Fuck a few years ago - fortunately, I seem to be aging quite well, so far! Hate to tell you this, Jason: you're actually now in your SIXTH decade - not your fifth........

Expand full comment

Yep, but I don’t count the 70s since I really don’t remember much until 1st grade, in the 80s! &:^)

Glad you liked it! And congrats on aging like a fine cheese, or however the expression goes. :)

Turn 60 this year; going with 60 and WTF?

😆 Sounds fitting Andrew.

Robin, I feel you are lost to me, being first with no comment section. Is this a takeover?! Is Jason your

frontman? Are you slowly disappearing and never coming back? Oooooh.

😆😆 Don't worry, wild stallions (not even the one I'm dating) could drag me away from this place. I just took an opportunity to share Jason's piece because I had my own thoughts on it hehe

\(^_^)/ Yay!

I think that you and Jason each need to invest in one of these.

😆😆 That URL did NOT disappoint. It would be an endless source of laughs to have my dog chase that. "What's Cora doing?" ..."Chasing dick again"

A photographer friend of mine was given one of them by her stepmother(!) and she sent me a photo of her dog zeroed in on the red dick on the wall.

It was a thing of beauty...

My advice is simple: Add the numbers together until you get a single digit, then start over again when you have two numbers again.

50? 5+0=5 year old antics. 42? 4+2=6 year old antics and potty mouth to go with it.

Isn't math wonderful.😂😍🤔

You make math fun and functional Danielle! 😆

Good news! You're both still alive! And have made it past the natural average lifespan of our species!

Bad news! The creaky parts continue to get worse! And the boobs get lower!

I first threw out my back in my sleep at the ripe old age of 30.

I haven't been able to haul out the garbage wheely bin for... at least half of this century without going OOF.
