No More Get-Up-And-Go

I'm tired, I ache, everything's sore. I kicked off my shoes as I walked in the door. Poured myself wine, curled up in a chair. It's a Friday night but what do I care. Too tired to party. Those days have passed. It's p.j.'s and T.V. I'm comfy at last. Getting old is the pits and I needed to vent since my get-up-and-go. it got up and went.
