You are 37 years and 262 days old today.

You've outlived Jack Parsons by almost a week. He was a CalTech researcher, co-founder of the Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) and Aleister Crowley adherent. He died of injuries sustained in a lab explosion on June 17, 1952, 20 years before you were born.

You've outlived Dean Paul Martin by two days. He was the son of Dean Martin, tennis player, actor, and singer. He died in an airplane accident on March 21, 1987, when you were 13 years old.

I try never to look at these things. They're always people who've done amazingly cool things, whereas me, I'm nothing to this world, I'm shit, I don't like being reminded of that. And self-esteem being what it is, I'm pretty sure that if I had a doctorate and a great job at SLAC or Fermilab, I'd still detest the person I saw in the mirror just as much.

Yeah, there is that view. I try to remind myself that, well, some people get moving early and burn out early; others take longer to start and to finish. I'm gonna be around forty by the time I finish my first stupid graphic novel, and I could be down on myself for not having started when I was **FOURTEEN**... or I can be proud of myself for having done it, and be glad my self-criticism got overridden by endless practice enough for me to do it.

I was just thinking that myself. I got Jimi Hendrix. That was not cheerful.

You've outlived King Richard III by two days. He was the King of England (1483-85) whose revolt-ridden reign was the last in the Plantagenet dynasty. He died of injuries sustained in battle on August 22, 1485, 491 years before you were born

At your exact age, Evangelista Torricelli died of typhoid fever. He was a physicist and mathematician who invented the barometer.

"I'm 37, I'm not *old*!"

[circuit-four.livejournal.com]

That too! But the reason's a bit more serious...

[kinkyturtle.livejournal.com]

Oh right, I think I remember why.
