“Hell I’ve always been old but you know what I don’t mind I mean if my muscles ache its cause I’ve used ‘em. It’s hard for me to walk up them steps now because I’ve walked up them every night to lay next to a man who loved me. I got a few wrinkles here and there but I’ve laid under thousands of skies with sunny days. I look and feel this way well cause I drank and I smoked I lived and I loved, danced, sang, sweat and screwed my way through a pretty damn good life. Trust me, getting old ain’t bad. Getting old--it’s earned.” -The Guardian
