Considering the fact that my birthday will happen while we're on vacation, I'm considering buying pizzas and beer for the colleagues tomorrow. To celebrate what? I hate getting older. It fucking shows. I look in the mirror and I wonder when the hell did this happen. Something died there. And good looks are relative, they depend so much of your

Oh I hate it too. I wish I didn't feel this way, but I always find myself counting down the years, weeks, days, hours... thinking about lost time, etc. You're right though - beauty is often a state of mind. Just today I was reading some old emails while looking for one in particular. Someone once wrote to me something like "don't look at yourself when you're feeling down, you will only see what's in your head". Not practical advice for obvious reasons, but it kind of makes sense.

I love your open letter. You have such a nice way with words, do you know that?

I think I will follow that piece of advice too. Sounds like a good idea.

Ah, the letter was supposed to be funny. I can't get funny right these days. Damn!

Awww don't worry. I got the humor in it, but I still thought it was nice...

The guy is REALLY nice. Now I really wonder about that green t-shirt. What on earth could make a guy wear something so small that every time he moves, it hikes up and shows his belly. OK, I only saw the back, but, boy, that was HOT. But seriously, why? Only (teenage) girls wear things like that, as far as I know. Whom was he trying to seduce?

That is so sexy when a man's shirt hikes up that way! Well, as long as he has a nice body, hehe. Not many men can get away with something like that - often it makes a guy look like he thinks he's hot and he's showing off. But some guys can wear it nicely...
