As Usual


Browsing Time Goes By this morning and I found a link to a Life Expectancy exam and I took it, of course. The good news is that I can reasonably expect to live until the age of 82. The bad news is that's only 14 years from now. So let's go back to the 'good news'; I think I have my mother's genes and that side tends towards longevity, with my grandmother living till she was 93 and my mother, with her terrible health habits, living to the age of 87. The exam doesn't take genetics into account when calculating so I'm adding 6 years to that number. That makes it an even 20 years from now and I like even numbers, even though I am somewhat odd.

  1. I may take after Mom as well. My life expectancy is 93.9 years. Good News! Bad news, I don't have enough in my retirement to keep off the streets so I will have to work for a while longer. But I can do that because my biological age is only 55!

  2. Lucky you!

    Bad news and good news. Which one is this?

    "I will have to work for a while longer. But I can do that because my biological age is only 55!"

    That's not good...
