  1. A couple weeks ago I "slept wrong" on my right shoulder, and strained connective tissue therein. It runs in my family: my sister Judy broke a rib in her sleep as a young adult (alone). It's getting better, but still sore: sore, not really painful. But my patience has run out. So the ice packs are in the freezer, and I pulled the shoulder harness for them out of a closet. Can't recall the last time I needed this? Also gonna take some ibuprofen before bed.

  2. I tennised too hard last night. My knee solidly hurts.

  3. Getting a haircut now is such a bittersweet activity. On the whole there’s not a lot to lose but what’s plentiful is in all the wrong spots

  4. I'm sitting here watching someone play #DOOM #TheDarkAges, and remembering back when id software drawing actual _curves_ in a game was a huge freaking deal.

  5. I was out the door and down the steps when I (thankfully) remembered to turn around for the cookies I baked for our office swap today

    Phew!

    (But I forgot my reading glasses. Now I gotta crank my font up to 150% #OldManProblems #Cookies #Glasses)

  6. Sobald die Haare aus der Nase rauszuwachsen beginnen, ist es zu Haaren auf der Nase auch nicht mehr weit. #OldManProblems

  7. @FiStitchWitch
    On par with getting old. 😜 Basically a bunch of #OldManProblems.

    The moobs are now covered.

  8. Huh. It took me a minute to figure out it's Friday.... even with boosting a "Friday origin" post wthin the past hour or so. For some reason I was thinking it's the weekend.

    Silly me.

    I blame it all on it being a leap year.

    🙄 Time gets blurry when yer old. You'll see, if you're not there already.

  9. Home again, home again, jiggity jig.

    (I took the gas station option, obviously)

    As an old man, I know where all the publicly accessible tinkletoriums are, and plan my route accordingly.

  10. My mornings usually start out with a sleep disruption word problem. “How much sleep have I had if I was in bed at eleven, and the concrete saw and jackhammer started at seven; but I was up twice for the bathroom and had one 90 minute bout of insomniac web surfing…” When the math gets too hard to figure without a cup of coffee, I just get up. #oldmanproblems

  11. Lynyrd Skynyrd (sic) is on TV. Decrepit old men singing "what's your name, little girl?"

    Then I hadda stop wigging... I'm that age. Until recently, I'd prance about on stage acting a quarter my age, too.

    There's a chance I might again. I've been getting the itch, and plinking ain't cuttin' the mustard.

    I'd like to think I don't look as thirsty/creepy as these guys, but dunno.

    Mayhap I do.

  12. 🤣 You say that now...

    No. I shan't. I know only too well what the results of such endeavors would be.

    Besides, there's an ocean in the way.

    On the other hand, if someone were to actually knock upon my door, the matter will most certainly be re-opened for discussion. *waggles eyebrows*

  13. The arm clip on my reading glasses cracked, so I did the traditional tape repair. It keeps the arm in place, but allows a lot of bend, making my glasses sit slightly askew, and it's giving me an eyeache.

    In the meantime... NERD!

  14. PISS LAMENT

    I'm afraid to go out
    Because it goes
    From I gotta pee
    To I gotta pee right now
    In the span of five minutes

  15. @zachnfine @baratunde My brother told me he loves QR code menus...because he can usually pinch-zoom to read it instead of busting out a flashlight and/or reading glasses! #oldmanproblems

  16. 🤣 OK. It's not just me. The judges are telling him not to let the shit performance get him down. You can do it!

    Again, it was piss poor song choice. Are these kids* picking their own songs, or are they being told what to sing?

    * I know they're young adults capable of making life decisions for themselves. I say kids because I could be their grampa. It's not meant as a denigration. #OldManProblems
