I usually don't give my age... a lot of times I forget.

But I had to post my creds for here. I won't do it again.

Looks around... um, single malt or blend?
(no judging)

Blended please
Thanks

I’m bald. Shave my head every morning.

White beard.

Have a pre-cancerous spot on my head that I’m treating.

What is going on with this mess of weather

How was your night, hun? I was worried for you!

 

[crashD]

Watching the Rockies cubs on TV. Cold and rainy.

Glad you're keeping on top of that spot. Serious business, that.

Yeah. I was surprised. I almost always wear a hat outside and use sp 50 sunblock.

We caught it in time so we’ll see how the topical treatment works.

As a Scotch-Irish lad meself, let me gently correct you…

That would be yer Family Tartan, Lass

What part of the old country would ye be hailing from? We’re from Port Appin, County Argyllshire (further research has actually turned up the Isle of Lismore as our probable ancestral home), it’s in the Inner Hebrides and part of the Highlands…FREEDOM!

I stand corrected! Thank you, H!

Anyone like jeopardy? I know one other person here who like it.

It’s part of our nightly routine. Even my daughter, when she is here, enjoys it.

I tend to be good at trivia. But I can’t get anywhere on that damn Jeopardy test. I’m just not fast enough.

We should have Tuesday night trivia at our cafe/pub/greasy spoon!

A cougar??

The tattoo in your avi is the WSU cougar. I thought perhaps you went to school there.

I am stressed out.... why do tip sheets always suck..... you tell me I qm not attaching the spend authorization, but the spend authorization button i hit to say add spend authorization is checked.... God so annoying

Work shit! Always more difficult than it needs to be.

Ah! Retired life!!

I've been noticing this week (work) not a single woman - regardless of age, hair texture or length - is showing any grey.

What's cute is when a man tries to cover the grey in his beard and selects a super dark color that doesn't match any hair on his head or eyebrows

I think grey hair is quite sexy on a man.

 

[Lilianna23]

I'm not sure that "cute" is the right term. "Womanless" is almost a certainty, and "Desperate" maybe figure into it, too.


Most of my woman co-workers who likely need dye, do.

I did, as the grey wasn't very friendly to the red.

Many years ago I worked with an older man who was rather handsome (he looked a bit like Caesar Romero). Salt and pepper hair and mustache. He had the unfortunate habit of occasionally showing up with shoe polish black hair. He wasn't fooling anybody... we saw him every day!

 

[Lilianna23]

Covid made me care less about gray... I have earned every wisdom strand I have..... and every pound

Retiring made me care less about the grey! Breaking my arm made me care less about my hair length. I love the short, grey, curly hair I'm rocking now!

While I've also earned every pound, I'm finding I have less of a need for them. Working on that in the gym...

You do you, hunni! You only need to care about yours and the thoughts of others who care about you.

 

[Lilianna23]

I'm gonna put it out there - It's different for men!!!!!!!!!!! I actually love salt and pepper beards. Just sayin'

Oh, me too!!!

We love music here! Don't you DARE delete it!

I'm a bit scruffier up top than I care to be. My trimmer is dying. Years ago I went to a Russian barbershop in NYC and would get a real head shave with hot shaving cream and straight edge razor. Haven't had a chance to do it since.

 

[Lilianna23]

Do you celebrate the milestone birthdays? Or are they just another birthday?

I celebrate EVERY. Single. One! I've earned them!
