Aging gracefully is one thing, but trying to slow it down is another.

I'm much more of a realist. I'm really practical. I'm the kind of person that calls my business manager and says, OK, if it were all to end today, how many months do I have to live?

I guess Pumas are in their 30s. Cougars in their 40s Jaguars are 50s, and Sabretooths go into the 60s, right?

If I like myself at this weight, then this is what I'm going to be. I don't have an eating disorder.

The questions I'm asking myself are, 'What makes me happy? Where do I want to be? What will make me happy at 50, 60 and 70?'

I'm not comfortable leaving my house. If someone invites me over, I would go but it's not like I'm one to say, 'Hey, let's hang out at your house tonight.'

I'm not a passive person by any stretch of the imagination.
