9.18.2009 ftw

running this morning, i noticed that my heels scrape the ground more than they used to.
how many more years until i'm doing the dementia shuffle?

a couple of blocks from where i live, i saw a rivercrest matron
(her hair just so, wearing pastel colors, not yet succumbing to greys and browns)
wrap her orange shawl around her as she very laboriously ascended from her sporty bmw
in a cloud of white shoulders, showing, i thought, a remarkable amount of dignity.

It's all the fashion now. I'll be sporting that look at our next gig...
