Adjectives

"Distinguished". "Rugged". "Grizzle". "Adams". All words used to describe me in the recent weeks. Personally, I feel "tenured" and "professor" are starting to foot the bill. Even with all the wonderful descriptors that have been developed recently, nothing profound has yet to happen.  I'm waiting on that skinny-girl-in-a-fat-suit moment.  That moment when I realise that people are starting to look at me a little differently.  Perhaps they are and I just haven't noticed yet.  Perhaps our culture has been supplanted by that of the hipster and I'm just blending in.  (As much as it pains my vanity I hope for the former.  My Brooks Brothers wardrobe could not abide the latter.)
