    Heh. You don’t know how much it amuses me that you said “diggity”.

    Teeth: Non-existant. You might want to reconsider.

    No see, I already have a partial denture. So I’m not deterred.

    Dude I am so with you. I think I might already be at least 60% old lady -I sure have the silver hairs popping up. Besides, I’m already 33 and that’s, like, OLD!!

    funny you post this today. i just went to my best friend’s grandmother’s house and we chatted it up for like 2 hours about how her and her widow used to live life to the fullest. she says their apt didnt have heat so they would “undress in front of the gas stove and run through their railroad style apt and, you know we were young…” so i said oh yeah you’d “warm up under the sheets” and she laughs and goes OH YEAHHHH!!!!! i love old ladies. i aspire to be 1/2 of the “old lady” that my grandmother is. right?!

    oh and she says “i was always a big girl…” and grabbed my already motherly hips and goes “what a big girl you are!!!” and of course i took that as a compliment.

    The only things I’m missing are rain bonnets and fiber supplements, but I do scuff around in slippers that are identical to my 79-year-old grandmother’s. Score!

    And may I steal “…the diggity…” and make it my own? Thankyouverymuch.

    Giant handbags-Always full of Kleenex and old hard candies! Convenient!
