so yesterday i was warmly welcomed to my "mid-twenties" .... and it all seemed bright and shining and wonderful (yes i do have the best friends in the world, thank you very much) until this afternoon, when i came across this in the ever-depressing nytimes -- confirmation that we peak in cognitive powers, including processing speed and memory in our early to mid twenties. yes, peak. implying, the followup of 50ish years of long, steady, irreversible decline. oh. no.

why am i in school??? why am i doing mindless busywork? my brain is decaying before (behind!) my very eyes ... MUST DO SOMETHING IMPORTANT SIGNIFICANT CHALLENGING NOW!!!!!

::shudder::

::trundle off::

wow, that is depressing. we max out on neurons at AGE 25?! I might as well just give up now...
