I caught a baseball in the mouth when I was in high school, lost my front teeth. I survived. As for getting old. So far it beats the alternative although given the choice I certainly would rather do it Heffner's way.

As we wallow through the depths of our Pandemic, it is uplifting to read someone who is not only positive but downright playful about our distant future!

Given that you and I will face the second half of this century at proximate ages, I will share my general (however contrary) optimism. While I enthusiastically embrace dystopian fantasies (particular favorites are Kurt Vonnegut's "Welcome to the Monkeyhouse" and Denzel Washington's "Book of Eli"), I remain sanguine regarding our actual prospects.

Medically we continue to make spectacular progress in prosthetics, and I predict within the next 20 years any body part will be replaceable with a virtually indistinguishable high-performing synthetic version. So worries about eardrums, teeth and other entropic organs/appendages are unnecessary.

As for our indiscretions, peccadilloes and other weaknesses of the flesh that either we reveal in our senior moments or are still working through their 50-year internet half-life.....well, think about what passed as risque or obscene in our parents' youth. Recall how underwhelming their debaucheries were in context as we pushed sexual and hallucinogenic boundaries into terra incognita. By the same measure, our escapades will likely soon be viewed as banal *family fare*.

To be sure, Father Time will not look gently upon many (if not most) of us. Yet, even 40 years hence, attitude will still be *everything*. In my view, given your irrational exuberance, your goals are targeting the wrong age-group.

I encourage you to prepare to be a sex coach to the grown-ass Generation C - the newborns birthed in COVID-time, whose first visual connection with our world will be a bunch of half-crazed humans in masks.

What a hot mess they are going to be. You will have your work cut out for you, but you will be more than up to it.

Now, bear in mind McJules that losing teeth will make it easier to get a fist in....... No, wait, sorry, wrong post!

I've a very good friend whose partner lost her teeth in her teens........he swears by her oral skills.

I've always had similar romantic notions of rocking in my chair on the porch watching the world go by, but I suspect the reality will be somewhat different - a smelly old folks' home with gruff male nurses performing hygienic functions on me........I've always said I'd rather have a wee pill than suffer that fate! And a right cheery wee thought that is, eh??

My other preference would be cryogenic sleep for hundreds of years, then to be re-animated to find that we've achieved interstellar travel and a higher intelligence.......again, I think the reality might be somewhat ddifferent!

On the plus side, if I can get a few good active years before any of that befalls me, I'll take em!

Great wee post, grandma!! I do enjoy your pre-ramble rambles!

Oh Jules, you are so beautiful in your musings. By your photo, you have beautiful teeth and if you're anything like I suspect, you take care of them twice daily or more. So, you will have your teeth as a beautiful sexy elder giving those sex lectures. *S*

Personally, I am older and have been staying busy. I don't wish to slow down to much. However, I have noticed that the stamina which I displayed in my youth, is not longer there. So, I learned to adjust and pace myself better.

If you are anything like I suspect, you will not slow down without a mental fight. So, enjoy every day and don't worry about aging. That takes care of itself. *S*

Always Ready for Fun.

A very amusing speculation.

I find a water pick is easier to use than floss. Once a day keeps the plaque build up low enough that every six months at the dentist is all I need after going 30 years with only 3 visits.

You do have a great smile, and if you take care of it you will still have it many years hence.

Thank you for the afternoon laugh Jules. Laughter and levity is what we need most right now.

Yeah I really don’t want to end up with dementia or diarrhea of the mouth about all the pussy I’ve had before.

Teeth or no teeth - no worries.

I spent the day in a hospital today; a barrage of tests on a benign issue will be resolved without conflict or angst. The stuff I witnessed, the conversations I shared and overheard, the pain I felt on the faces of all the folks around me, well...
Damn it feels fucking great to be alive. You know what I mean.

Perspective is easy to swallow when it kicks you in the mouth and the other choice - is one you're not ready for.

I think you've set some reachable goals. The capacity to experience joy is a worthy one. Teeth? They'll solve that challenge by the time you're rocking in that chair or on the circuit. The question might be, 'Will we need them, or will we all be cursed to slurp some organic nutrient, fibre crap by then?'

I'd hope that our future will still hold an option for a medium-rare steak with ribs on the side.

Yep. It would be a bitch if I had to sip THAT through a fricken straw! 🍷🍷😎❗

I was about to ask if you had a birthday. Rather a “deep” post with only a smattering of sex. Ah those random thoughts about aging. The closer to 60 I get, the more of them I have. For me...I want to live a long time but I worry about the quality of what I’ll be able to do. My mom is going to be 89 this year. She’s getting so frail and having a hard time doing simple things. (I’m sorry to talk about my mom...muah.). I suppose I just don’t want to feel weak and unable to do things for myself. As for my teeth...I hate brushing them. Maybe a false set would be more convenient!

....lmfao... so, did you perhaps eat a gummie an hour before you decided to post.... or perhaps a magic mushroom... lol.... the musings of an interesting human wandering off into the status of old age.... but remember... we have to live each day in order to get there.... and if you arrive at that doting old place where you have more wrinkles than teeth... well you might have a new career.....

.....there was an old mining town in Colorado that had a saloon staffed by a group of elderly women... for a drink they would tell you about the gold rush days when they were alleviating the miners and the cowboys of their hard earned meager wages for favors of the kind where the Madame took her share.... and some of those tales were tawdry indeed.... embellished and refined over the ages I am sure....

....so with your prophetic gift of the imagination and the fuzzy remembrance of the real....yup, there might indeed be a late in life career.... where all will look at your aged glory and say.... now that is a life well lived....

...carpe diem....

Where do you hope to see yourself in your Golden Years, "Somewhere ages and ages hence?"

Probably still practicing unless I have a lovely retirement nest egg, then wouldn't mind being in Hawaii or somewhere overseas near the beach, with good vision, lasik, and not Harry Caray glasses.

Hopefully your golden years will be one of happiness and fulfillment with all your teeth intact so many can enjoy that mesmerizing smile of yours.

....yada yada yada.....

And yes my dear Sir, I am in lock step with you on carpe diem-ing so I can look back on a "life well lived."

And Mr. Merlot? Between you and me...? I am already there.
Quite blessed.

..........
Merlot responds:

...blessed indeed are you .... living life to its fullest... one day at a time.... sometimes in basic simplicity.... sometimes in carnal complexity..... and the path meanders, so pay close attention the those things around you that light up your imagination... and cherish that which you hold dearest....

....now where did I leave my teeth? wink!

I have been told that attorneys never need to retire. You go part-time and practice for the rest of your life if you wanted.
wow. I love your vision of retirement, including lasik. YOu've given this quite a lot of thought. ]

That is true, especially my area of law. I can see myself doing this as long as I enjoy it. Pity you can't clerk for me

When you've worked some crappy jobs, you think of early retirement lol

Luckily I am self-employed so work is not crappy anymore but do want to enjoy celebrate retirement on my own terms
