back to work
There are maybe 5 people in the building today. Normally I'd love the solitude but I've got an annoying cold so I'd much rather be snuggled up in bed.
I had a good trip to Dallas. I got to meet my friend's new boyfriend which was interesting. I don't think she's ever read my blog so I hope I'm safe in picking on him. Honestly whatever I say here I think I said to her last week. According to my friend, her boyfriend ("R") has never told her how old he actually is. She said 55 the first time I asked (when they started dating) and then she said 57 last week. I think he's at least 60. Now my dad is 61 but he doesn't look or act it. This guy, while he's in really good shape, acts like he's old. Plus he works outdoors so he's kind of, um, weathered. My friend is no spring chicken at 41 but she's pretty hip (in a geeky sort of way) and honestly looks like she's 35 or 36. They really don't seem to have a lot in common but she seems to be happy and that should be enough for me, right?

It always stinks when you don't like the friend's boyfriend... but as long as she's happy and it seems like an otherwise healthy relationship... what can you do?
Doesn't it seem weird that we're at a point in life where we have friends who are dating people that old? I still think of myself as being 12, so that seems very strange.
