On the horizon: Sunset Years

Today my mailbox gifted me with a special introductory offer for GO girl!, "the only Canadian magazine that celebrates women over 40." How they found out my real age I'll never know. Was my cardigan collection a dead giveaway? The fact that I pet my neighbors' pets without prior permission? (by that rule, I could also be ten years old). Hm. The letter itself is very positive:

"Dear Fascinating Woman,
     You've arrived!
     Smack in the middle of the banquet of life. Mixing it up. Figuring it out. Redefining yourself as you go. (...)"

I don't know about you, but I sure would like tickets to this banquet of life. Or any banquet, really. Sipping apéritifs and digestifs, enjoying canapés on sofas (think about it), feeling like the world is one's oyster (ooh! oysters on the half shell!)... What? It's not that kind of banquet? Never mind. I'm busy that night anyway. Those dogs in the elevator aren't gonna pet themselves.
