Re: Growing Older

Post by OuttaNowhereWregget »

I find myself losing interest in things little by little as time goes by. My dad expressed similar sentiments when he hit his 70's. I don't seem to mind however. Less and less do sports interest me. The four major sports most notably. I do find I enjoy sitting home and re-watching some of the many films I've come to appreciate more and more as I go. On The Waterfront, In the Heat of the Night, Marathon Man, and many more, are like spending comfortable time with old friends. It's fun to get together with old friends on occasion but if they cancel last minute I feel like a kid who finds out he doesn't have to go to school in the morning because of something unforeseen. I may have mentioned this previously but I am more and more grateful for the slow death of the libido. How guys ante up for testosterone supplements to jumpstart it is beyond me. What a blessing to not be dogged by the nuisance of sexual drive. How much trouble it causes in the chapters of life. More and more the far right lane for me on the highway. Who needs the speed demons and chance-takers in the lefter lanes. I'm blessed to have my health and no dependence on medications in my early 60's. I'm more aware of what I eat for bodily preventive maintenance and it has made a big difference. Lot of good things about growing older.

You got that right. Cut from a completely different bolt of cloth.

Bolt of cloth. Haven’t heard that term in loooong time.
A fraudulent intent, however carefully concealed at the outset, will generally, in the end, betray itself.

I’m not sure if I mentioned this on fanlax somewhere else. The war dept. and I were riding home a couple of months ago she had an iron infusion and I had had some unmentionable old man stuff done to me. What came up on the radio? “You gotta fight for your right to party”. Dem Beastie Boys know there stuff. :lol:

All depends on the chemistry between the beer drinkers...
