“Over the hill. Is that forty or fifty?”
“It’s fifty, it has to be fifty, that’s when you get the grey balloons and stuff, right? If it was 40 I would be over the hill.”
(This is an IT meeting, so there was about thirty seconds of silence here.)
“Sunny, I have some bad news for you.” (They used my other nickname tho.)
“…”
“…”
“You guys are all babies and I hate you.”
ffffffffffffffffffff

@IoleRae When my dad turned 40, my older brothers did a big presentation with one of those giant easel sketchbooks. The presentation was called
Things That Are Older Than Dad
It included entries such as the following:
- Dirt
- The Earth
- Dinosaurs
- Time
- God
- Granddad
I really hope my parents still have that sketchbook somewhere.
-
That is amazing.

@GF Shit, I’ve been over the hill since I was 27, then.
-
@Testament Nurse, or athlete?
-
@GF Neither. Soldier.
-
@Testament Yep, that’ll do it.
-
hip count?
-
@GF To be fair, in my case it was feet, but the other two followed not too long after despite that.
ETA: And I still work on my feet most days. “Unable to serve due to disqualifying conditions” my ass.

It’s not measured in years. It’s measured by when you get your first chronic injury in your knee or lower back.
Well, that sure explains my entire personality. I’ve been a Grumpy Old Man since I was twelve, by this measure.

I’m in a bit of an RP rut lately, and that sucks. It’s of my own making!
I have lots of hooks to work on, tons of support to get to interesting story things, and I feel extreme levels of gratitude that if I reach my hand out, I can grab the RP I crave with ease, and I take none of that effort for granted.
I want to be the person who RPs a ton, and life just isn’t getting the memo right now (I’m having sleep disorder problems, which poisons everything.) Thanks to all the people who keep poking me to play, and I’m sorry that most days the answer has been a bleary ‘Maaaaybe’.
I want to be so much more than this.

@Solstice Not giving up on you. You have a plot hook waiting and that invitation.
But on your own time. When your ready.
