The story of my life. At 72, I am envious of the options available to younger people. The dress, tattoos, hair color ... SPIKES! I would love spiked hair! (Alas, my thinning hair is challenged enough without aiming for a dragon's back of spikes!)

Seriously, I've been one step left of normal my entire life, and people have told me to cool it just as long.

I never had trouble finding partners, but they weren't always thrilled to find out that the quirks were sticking around but they weren't. :)

Enjoy your weirdness and beaver glands, science, and vanilla are awesome!
