Sometimes I think Plato was right about philosopher kings. The whole problem with this anyone can grow up to be president thing, is that anyone can grow up to be president. People are idiots.

I'm taking after my dad in that my hair hasn't yet really gone grey. His didn't until he was nearly 80. I guess I should be glad but I think if it was grey I'd get some damned respect. Me and Rodney Dangerfield, man.

SNL for old people. Gosling kills me. Were I a younger woman I would have such a crush on him. but obviously I am way too old for such shenanigans.

The fact that I’m 72 and nearing the end of this chaotic life is interesting. I would like to meet and talk with others who are dealing with this transition. It’s fascinating and no one wants to talk about it.

Santos fascinates me. I've known some liars- mostly they lie to get out of facing things, or to cover up bad behavior. Santos seems to just lie for shits and giggles. He's a fabulist. I don't understand the type, although I had a friend like that when I was kid- she grew out of it, though.

do people still hand out cigars when people have babies? I think I should get some.

@georgetakei Best city in the world.

@Mrfunkedude you smell lovely. I have an app that lets you smell the people you follow.

I really like my new (well, November) house. I kind of walk around all day going "heh, I like this quirky little house". I'll like it even more when it's summer and we can open the pool. I can't believe I have a pool. Lifelong dream. Took long enough. I'm a fish, basically.

My parents ran the NJ Camp for Blind Children starting when I was 5. Dad was a teacher, and was in camping in the summers. I grew up swimming and boating in a lake and having friends all summer long. Then we'd have to go home, which I hated. Camp was my real home. It's the place of all my great childhood memories.

I love that I learned to swim at such a young age that I have no memory of learning to swim. It's just that thing I could always do. I love it. I love being underwater. I love the feel of jumping in the water. I just love it so much. #FishLady

I cant' complain about the spouse, though, as he painted an entire room today. Now I need to buy a sofabed.

@Mrfunkedude eat toast? Toast is nice.

this is such a pleasant social media joint. It really is.

Here’s a picture of my new rattan chair- it’s got a built in magazine rack and a built in cat.

@Mrfunkedude exactly. Shoot me now.

I’ve started saying “back
In the day” a lot. I swore I wouldn’t.

@Mrfunkedude I was just thinking about the holographic 10 forward we saw on yesterday's episode. But yeah, serious lack of robots.

@Mrfunkedude certainly.

@Mrfunkedude yeah, but most of the folks that work in bars are holograms, so there's that.
