Aging

I am, for some reason, reading the archives of James Nicoll's LiveJournal. I just ran across a post in which he complained about the effects of aging on one's eyebrows. ("[E]yebrow hair suddenly thinks it is head hair and it begins to grow to an indefinite length.")

I have never noticed this effect; my eyebrows are much as they ever were - maybe a little darker.

James Nicoll is three years younger than I am (and reported this effect nearly a decade ago).

Am I failing at becoming old?

A Study in White

There is snow on the ground outside. Only a trace, but it's there.

Genuine snowfall (as opposed to tonight's snow shower) is prophesied for Saturday.

I'm not ready.
