More signs of aging
1. I think I am starting to strongly prefer fresh pizza to day-old pizza, and heated-up pizza to cold pizza. Bizarre. Someone pass the denture paste.

2. I have figured out how to avoid rowdy teens on the bus! Just sit on the bottom of the bus. The teens naturally migrate to the top because of course the bus driver is on the bottom and could see their shenanigans. I used to always sit up top because the view is better from there so I could make sure I saw my stop coming and not miss it, but now that I'm better acquainted with the route (and also since it's usually light out when I get home now) this is not so much a concern. Of course, many of the seats on the bottom are reserved for the old/infirm, but not all of them are. The only problem is when I get back to the states and the busses only have a bottom, no top. Really, we should have tops on our busses because then each bus could carry so many more people! Think about it. It's brilliant!

Perhaps I have also assimilated.
