Oct 2013

The crows feet dont bother me. I have actually enjoyed entering middle age. Frankly I have earned my wrinkles and I eat right excercise etc. Like I said I just have developed deep creases in my brow that have evoked enough why are you mad? From eight year-olds and parents have told me their kids think I look angry. Not most but enough. And I know damned well its because of my constant frowns. So if a couple of shots between the eyes solve that problem I am willing to do that. I got them from years of political high stress PR work. I became a teacher to get away from all that and took a giant income cut to do something I love. So the angry furrowed brow is a hangover from those days and I have researched it and its potential side effects and am leaning toward smoothing that out. Trust me like I said I am perfectly fine looking forty something. But angry looking forty something is counter productive with some of the eighr year-olds I love and work with.
