Jolene's Nose, My Ears, and the Death of Embarrassment - Anna Blake Ironically, as I watch Jolene's senses become more acute, my own become foggier, thicker, unreliable.

The Year-End Tally. Call It Aging Cantankerously - Anna Blake When you look at life impersonally, the cycle is obvious. Things have to come apart to change. We are always trading one thing for another.

Hungover, Jolene Meets The Weather of Her People - Anna Blake We have a Vallhund hangover. Jolene knows it's just me and Mister now, and to be fair, we are a little slow and dull-witted.

We don't match, but we belong.

Just had convo w/my oldest friend discussing in detail the brutalities of aging as women in our society. As if any one of us has the option of stopping or reversing course. And dog forbid you are going it alone.

I'm so depressed now.

Not the Job I Want for Jolene - Anna Blake Anthropologists talk on about domesticating animals to do our work like we were missionaries to primitive cultures. But every story has two sides.

Never pick a fight with a woman over 40. They are full of rage and sick of everyone's shit.

This is a picture that on any other day, I would have deleted instantly. I sure as hell wouldn’t post it online. Why? Because it shows my neck at 58yo, 150# and 5’6.” I hate it. Keep shooting until it’s out of the frame. Today it occurred to me that every non-Hollywood woman I see in her fifties has more or less the same neck. I even lost 60# over the pandemic (dyslexic move) but emerged with the heavy neck virtually intact. I love fall and winter because no one ever sees it under my snoods. Summer neckerchiefs never suffice, though they do make me considerably more neckerchievous. Even considered converting to Islam so I could wear a neck-hiding hijab without appropriating another culture. (I already speak Arabic, so I’d have a leg up. Also, it would be the final nail in the coffins of the nuns who used to shame and frighten me.) Today I am posting it. Because this 58yo neck holds up an ofttimes hysterical mind. I mean that in both a comical and emotional way. I do have severe ADHD. And a beautiful neck. On the right I flash my undusted and decidedly understated blue eyes. I never dared post any picture without mascara, under-eye concealer, and penciled-in eyebrows. No one want to see that! You know what? Fuck that. My immigrant ancestors were German, Norwegian and Irish—of course I’m paler than an unvaccinated white woman trapped in a Measles lockdown facility. Get used to it. It’s how a real woman looks. Radical. A real radical woman. Lol—shuffle cues Indigo Girls’ “Prince of Darkness.” Thanks for reading this.

Do I have suicidal tendencies if I let my hair-trigger lion-clawed cat knead directly over my carotid artery?

Of course not. I’m just that tired. 🥱

If women in their sixties can have great love lives, why not women in their 500s?

Age (and gender) discrimination in employment means employers lose out on great potential employees. It also means that women after midlife are free to develop our skills on our own terms. It's their loss and our gain.

Is there any woman over 50 IN THE WORLD who likes the cheery "hello young lady" greeting from young male colleagues, service staff etc?

Aarrghh!
