3 girlfriend things

This post is about three things. When I write a post like
this one I like to do it in threes - but I can't think right
off of the third one - which I was going to write about as
the second one - so I'll add it later if it comes - to me.
~~~

The title of this post - has the word 'girlfriend' in it - and
I would like to say that the use of that particular word is
in the generic form. Such as a person that ya like to hang
out with - and it can be a actual girl friend - or a guy. Or
it can be a person of any age. But here is the important part:
you just Hang Out. Remember the Seinfeld episode where Elaine
and Jerry talk about how ya can't bring S*x into a friendship -
or it won't work. That's what I'm thinkin' about here.

This post - as incoherent as it may be - is just talking to you
as if we were girlfriends - in the generic sense of the word.
If you are totally confused at this point - go to another blog -
but you will miss the best part - that follows.

about my face

It has not escaped me in the last six months that my bathroom
mirror has been cruelly trying to tell me that I am growing old.
Yes - unwelcome wrinkles have come to live in my face. And my
bathroom mirror is saying - What Are Ya Gonna Do About It - stidh -
anyway. Well - right now I'll tell ya what I'm gonna do:

NOTHING.

I could do treatments - get a face lift - stuff like that - but I'm
not going to. Becuase my wrinkles tell me something - like I have
lived most of my life - and now is the time to go for something
more important than looking good - or young. I'm 67 years old - and
I want to live THAT PART OF MY LIFE.

That's it folks. I am getting old and anyone who doesn't like my
wrinkles - and you know who ya are :[ can just stuff it.

just say no/Nancy Reagan

It's no secret that when Nancy Reagan was First Lady - I didn't like her.
That is until I found out that the reason she was so standoffish is that
she LOVED RONALD REAGAN SO MUCH that she was distracted - and she just
wanted to have a life with him. After I found that out I have nothing
but respect for her. And that leads to why I am even bringing her up.
And here it is:

JUST SAY NO

When I was in the Stress Unit last week I tried to help the other patients
out - and many of them were sadly young with alcohol and drug addiction
problems. But I always came up with these two things:

It's Consuming Your Life - I got that one from watching Robin Williams on
Letterman last year. He said that's the first thing they tell you in
Rehab.

and

Just Say No - is what First Lady Nancy Reagan embraced as her motto -
and an extremely important & and wise saying - and I would say that
in group therapy - and everyone picked up on it.

It is my most earnest hope that these great people that I was with in
the looney bin :] - will remember those three words - and the one about it comsuming your life.

Those words could save the life of many - & the combination is - well -
just amazing.

That's it. Is that incoherent - or what?

Thanks for being my girlfriend while ya read this - and would it kill
ya to comment?

if I think of the 3rd thing I'll post it later.
