    Presumably these are reported reasons. Which may not be the same as actual reasons. How many people feel the need to report physical symptoms when the mental symptoms are the real problem?

    I don't know what I'm trying to get out of rambling Sunday-night overly personal threads like this. It's hardly good content. It's just easier to get it out of my head somehow.

    And I think part of my fear of ageing is that all the older men I know just seem quite sad and unimpressive and I don't know what I'm meant to do except gradually become like them. Which seems terrible.

    I think it's been a long time since there were older men in my family that I looked up to. Like since childhood. And now I'm drifting into middle-age and I don't really know who to look up to or emulate.

    Been thinking recently that there aren't really any men in my life, who are older than me, who I respect and look up to and want to be like. And wondering how long it's been that way.

    I once visited a high school to do a talk. At the start I asked how many of the kids wanted to be an author when they grew up. Out of about 120, only 1 hand went up. When I finished my talk, I asked again. I'm proud to say, hand on heart, 0 hands went up. Scared that one kid good

    solidarity to the man I danced with once who looked down forlornly when stacy's mom starting playing, and said, very quietly, with the air of a man who had really been through something, "my first girlfriend was called stacy."

    Antarctic ice cores have been a huge dating help for archaeologists (meaning they help us chronologise stuff, not facilitate romantic encounters). The dark cirlce below is volcanic ash from 21,000 years ago.
