Driving Away From The End Of DaysLiving In Reverse
I wonder what life would be like if, at say the age of 40, certain things went backwards.
Instead of losing your eyesight, your eyes would get stronger and you could drive at night again. Instead of watching your hair thin, you would have a bitch of a time even getting your brush through that mop. Instead of bemoaning the fact that your tummy, your chest, and your ass were slowly descending somewhere close to your knees, everything would tighten up and your muscles and flesh would tighten to perfect proportions.
Cripes, you wouldn't have to worry about kidney stones, gall stones, depleted bones, and your partner's midnight moans and groans.
Your back wouldn't ache, your fingers wouldn't shake, and your skin wouldn't wrinkle or flake.
Your knees wouldn't wobble like midnight drunks, you could carry little Janey or Dickie down the beach in just your swim trunks, and you could stroll through the park without worrying about the neighbourhood street punks.
And then there's the lovemaking? Sure, you might be a little awkward again, but with what you now know, oh, the possibilities are as endless as a late night television show.
Best of all, you wouldn't have to feel insecure about being old, because I truly believe older people become insecure, whether or not they will admit it. You wouldn't have to make compromises with life's demands, wear black all the time, and make apologies for forgetting everyone's birthday, especially your own.
Of course, there might be a down side to all this. Like, you might get acne again.
Seems a fair trade-off.

oh THAT would be grand!
ReplyDeleteno arthritis, no glasses, no gray hair no fat ass...well maybe a fat ass...
"no arthritis"
DeleteOh, now that would be grand, indeed ...
I'm very impressed with your music player and would like one like it on my page. Where did you find it?
ReplyDeleteOh dear ... I made it myself ...
DeleteYou can get a player at http://www.longtailvideo.com/players/
and see http://www.longtailvideo.com/support/jw-player-setup-wizard/
as well ...
I was just thinking further ... you need some place on the internet to store the JW player ... maybe you don't have that option ... you could embed a YouTube player with a You Tube playlist. If you don't want the videos to show, just change the height of the player to 33px if you want the red progress line to show or 29px if you don't want the progress line to show. You can make the width of the player any value ... usually about 320px ...
DeleteFor your playlist, pick videos that have no "video" ... like the kinds with just a photo of the artist ot that have lyrics. These load faster than the ones with real videos.
Let me know if you need more help ...
Simply Red is simply divine! As for living in reverse, sometimes it feels that way, and other times it feels like life is in overdrive. I would be very happy with cruise control set to nice and easy.
ReplyDeleteOh nooo ... pedal to the metal ... and damn the torpedoes ... ;o}
