John Y’s Musings from the Middle; Right On Schedule

Right on schedule. (More or less)

I just bought some “big boy” dress pants and a jacket that make me feel like The Man in the Grey Flannel Suit.

True, I am going for more of a “big boy” look than I have in the past.

But the really exciting news is as I am closing in on turning 51 years old, I actually feel like a bona fide grown up man about 49% of the time now.

And that is a personal record.

But the other 51% seems to have the momentum today.
