I am lucky enough to be one of those guys who is not aging particularly poorly, at least, externally. Here is a pic fresh from the bathroom:

Mirrorme
People tell me all the time that I don't look 40, and I'm starting to believe them. I still have a full head of hair, my face is not super wrinkly, and I still walk with fairly youthful pep (I give myself away, though, by using words such as "pep").

Internally, however, it's a whole different story. For instance, I can't eat chorizo sausage without taking a dump within the hour that smells like a tire fire. And I like chorizo sausage. I'm not going to stop eating it. Also, I can't drink caffeine past 6 or 7 in the evening, because it keeps me up all night, whereas I used to be able to play D&D all night long, swilling terrifying volumes of Coca-Cola the entire time, and drop right to sleep as soon as I was done. I also love spicy food, but my body apparently doesn't like it quite as much as I do, since I have a vague heartburny feeling in the evenings about four days out of seven.

This is all new to me. I don't want to be one of those sad old guys, sitting at Chili's with his friends, shaking his head while he peruses the menu because there's nothing on there that doesnt give him gas, heartburn or diarrhea (or perhaps all three). I still want to eat what I like to eat. I don't want to have to stick to an inflexible diet of white, flavorless gruel. I already gave up salt: that was easy.

Please don't make me give up flavor altogether. Okay, guts? We got a deal?

I need my flavor.

Eating

Microwave taquitos. Tostitos. And a Coke.

Don't bother me.

I'm killing myself.

This is a pic of the three boxes of Girl Scout Thin Mint cookies my roommate has in her freezer. As some of you may know, it's ordering season again, or at least it's very close. Odds are, she will order more Thin Mints without eating any of the ones that she has in the freezer. She hordes them, because she's afraid of running out of them. I have tried to explain the insanity of this position, explaining to her that having them and not eating them is the same thing as not having them at all.

These cookies have been chilling in her freezer for a year!

Heather! Eat some of your Thin Mints! I don't even want any! I just want to see you eat some!

Every time I see those boxes in the freezer, I go a little more mad.
