Shock and awwwww...
On the bus tonight (another story), I caught sight of the face of this old guy reflected in the little round mirror that's up front by the driver. He was of European descent, with unremarkable features but with sullen, tired eyes and a drooping head. I was struck by how sad he looked; like something terrible had happened. At the next stop the interior lights came on and I realized I was looking at myself. Ugh.

Made me laugh! I try not to look in the mirror much, but when I catch the reflection of my face in normal pose (Not the mirror smile to tighten the loose cheeks pose)I am awed by the age of that old woman! Goodness. How DID that happen?
