Fifty-Five, Fifty-Five where are you today?
It seems the more I try to kick back, the more I end up having to do! Isn't that so with all of us?
Being busy has its good points; keeps the brain active and body limber and all that. But jeeze louise!
I wanna have time to do all the things that gotta get done so there's time to do the things I wanna do, too.
Wah! Wah! Wah!' (sound of spoiled baby cry/pouting)
Oh well... This entry will be probably one of the shortest. But sometimes that's how it is.
What Fifty-Five means for me today is simple...Fifty Five is the new Coffee Break! We're all entitled to one, and should take one every few hours.
Cubicles are not meant for human beings...even if the cubicles are only in our minds, we're not supposed to be stuck, hidden away and only let out at night...unless we want it that way, of course. Who's going to argue with a vampire?
So For today we all deserve a break, we'll take it! Fifty Five is the new Coffee Break, and mmmmm! Don't it smell delicious!
When I was heading toward my Double Nickel Birthday in April 2009, the age 55 seems to be a lot of things. In this blog I will chronicle my thoughts about 55 Is The New, for the year beginning December 2009 because...well...that's when I felt like starting the blog. The entries will include that important day, my actual Fifty-Fifth birthday on April 14, 2010 and will continue for my entire fifty fifth year, concluding on April 14, 2011.

Welcome To Fifty Five Is The New!
Hello out there!
What's it to you, turning the age of Fifty-five? You don't have to be turning it tomorrow, you could have already turned that corner a while back. That part doesn't matter so much.
While it's important what one feels, what matters most of all that one feels, that one feels anything at all.
So, as an exercise in self-examination and a way of getting over an incredible writer's block, I submit this blog to the World Wide Web, and I submit myself to a bit of mirror gazing.
Inspired by the movie "Julie & Julia," I will blog for one year, which will include my turning fifty-five, and see what I find.
Who knows? Maybe fifty-five will be something fantastic...like the New Me.
