and look in the mirror, and say, where the hell did you come from.

Here was me this morning having a conversation with my mirror.
Mirror, mirror on the wall
Do you have to tell it all?
Where do you get the glaring right
To make my clothes look too darn tight?
I think I'm fine but I can see
You won't cooperate with me,
The way you let the shadows play
You'd think my hair was getting gray.
What's that, you say? A double chin?
No, that's the way the light comes in,
If you persist in peering so
You'll confiscate my facial glow,
And then if you're not hanging straight
You'll tell me next I'm gaining weight,
I'm really quite upset with you
For giving this distorted view;
I hate you being smug and wise
O, look what's happened to my thighs!
I warn you now, O mirrored wall,
Since we're not on speaking terms at all,
If I look like this in my new jeans
You'll find yourself in smithereens!!

Well, I Came From The Sands Of Mystical Space, As I Look For My Purpose. I Find Myself In Bed Wondering Why I Was There, And What Is The Meaning Of My Being. So I Find Myself Looking Deeper And Now I Have Discovered The Actual Mystery I Have Been Searching For I Found Myself Asking: What The Hell Did I Do Last Night?
Hope This Helps

I'm only 59 and have yet to wonder where on earth that reflection in the mirror came from. Could be because I can still pass for 40 without makeup. Most of this is genetic; the rest of it comes from doing what I can to continue looking my best.

Actually I was feeling quite happy when I woke up this morning...spritely and fine inside of myself. So I would say a good 40.
I only look in the mirror to make sure I get all the soap off my face, and to make sure that my hair looks decent...I don't actually LOOK at ME there!
And then I had a really bad time when an established friend decided that I had insulted and embarrassed her, and removed me from her contacts list. Now I feel like sh!t, and about 80...dragging my butt around everywhere.

Happy Birthday Studs!
I would say I was 32 this morning. Felt real young hauling 12 pounds per brick for landscaping. Looked in the mirror and thought not bad for my real age.
Tomorrow may be a different story.

I opened my eyes at 18, took the first move from bed and had gone through 30 years in a heartbeat, and by the time I hit the floor, I was a full 50. By the time I made it to the bathroom, with mirror looming, another 16 years had past....amazing how time flies!

Mirror?

Sometimes I get up and I'm 40, other days I'm 90+.
The worst thing is that I have bushy eyebrows, but being long sighted I can't pluck them without my glasses - and that's when I see all the wrinkles! Shock horror! I look like a dried prune. No amount of make-up is going to hide that lot!

About 7 years ago when I began seeing my mother in that mirror.

My mother has apparently taken up residence in my mirror, I am coping by NEVER looking in the mirror while wearing my glasses.
I have removed my contacts as well, nothing personal, I feel bad it had to come to this.
