Amateur! Wait till you hit 65. I'm slowly becoming Darth Vader. Machines to make me breathe, eyes that can't see, ears that can't hear and teeth that shatter on the softest food. Luckily they haven't started replacing any of the inside bits.... yet.
PS: this is just the short list of stuff.
I describe adulthood as an ever-increasing amount of rituals to maintain normal.
Oh god yes!!! it takes an hour of smearing gels and snorting powders just to go to bed. Then I have to do it again next morning.
i think someone snorting white powder would have trouble sleeping for days.
Cpap? Among other things?
yup
My CPAP was literally life changing, was insane how much better I felt when I actually had real sleep! Hahaha
Getting old ain't for wussies!
