I’m 59 going on 12. I have purple in my hair and a combined 15 piercings between my ears and my nose. The piercings started after I turned 50 except for the original 2 that I got when I was a teenager. I’m considering either a 3rd tattoo or a nipple piercing, can’t decide which.

You’re only as old as you feel.

8 weeks ago, June 26. I remember getting ready, they put an IV in. I don’t remember anything after that until I woke up. When I woke up I was shivering, but I wasn’t actually cold. They immediately gave me some cookies and water and 2 Oxycodone pills and I got dressed and my mother-in-law took me to her place where I was staying the night.

Nope. The ones I’ve seen use their knuckles, or awkwardly use the pads of their fingers. Saying this as a woman who doesn’t like long nails.

Cats are thinking “old, slower and about the same size as us…we can take him.” Either that or they’re wondering if he’s tasty (I kid, your cats are very tolerant)
