In puberty, hair sprouts, sometimes ur voice changes. Sometimes things get "plugged" for a few days of the month. In puberty, u have growth spurts. Clothes don't fit, shoes don't fit. It is just udder chaos!!! I tell ya. Udder chaos!!!

Then, we zip thru life...Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!! So, here we r, either closin' in on our 50's or firmly entrenched in them. Then the strangest thing happens... And let me tell u, I was *NONE* too happy, when I found out that it was *already* happenin' to me. The words: "Slowly I turned, step by step. Inch by inch...I took my revenge" (Quote from an episode of "The Three Stooges"), come to mind. My body was takin' it's revenge *ON* me!!!

Instead of hair sproutin'...hair was *FALLIN' OUT*!!! *gasp*!!! Yet, I came to the realization, that it was "inevitable". OK, so I dealt w that. Yet there was *somethin'* I was *NOT* prepared for. I was *SHRINKIN'"!!! No, not down there... well, maybe, but I'll never admit it... No, I'm talkin' height-wise. Hey, I was not that tall to begin with... I was only 5'7. So, rather short. Yet, I went to the doc and she measured me as I lay on the table (cuz I can't stand). The sad news, I am *now* only 5'3". It took me *forever* to get up to 5'7 and now, I'm 5'3"... This is a travesty!!!

Gettin' old just *SUCKS*...

I just realized that I had to set my font size to 14... Oh sure, I'm goin' blind!!! What's next??? Hearin'??? I'm not even gonna mention memory... or should I say the *lack thereof*. Geez, no wonder my grandma was a cranky ol' woman...(and yeah, I am sayin' that in a very lovin' way... cuz she was a blast to be around... for all of her 101 yrs).

So, there ya have it... Puberty sucks. Middle age bites, puberty reversals r absolutely ZERO fun... And my luck, I'll have another 51 yrs of things fallin' out, fallin' off, or just plain' fallin'... I gotta invest more in bubblewrap... A LOT more... or is that ALOT??? or is that 144. Oh, no... That's a GROSS!!! hehe. Have a great weekend!!!

great article, still laughing, falling out, falling off.......LOL

That reminds me of a phrase that My ex-wife's mother said one time when we took her and my ex's grand mother out for dinner. My ex mother-in-law was a hoot. We saw an elderly gentleman well dressed and handsome walk up to the salad bar. I said to grand mother that the gentleman looked like a nice man maybe she should walk to the salad bar and start a conversation. I said you never Know that might be a good companion for you. The mother-in-law say's "Oh hell it's been so long since mom's had any it's probably haired over and grown shut." I about fell out of my chair.

I refuse to get old....

This is hilarious! I'm just pissed that the hair is sprouting less from where it's supposed to, and suddenly from where it's not supposed to. I have this chin hair that literally grows an inch overnight.

Very well done. I really like your writing voice--very natural.
