I watched Cougar Town the other night.  I think I'm a cougar.

The character Courtney Cox Arquette plays is single and 40 and finds herself attract to young good-looking men.  And, like her, although I look damn good for my age, you can't help but stand in the mirror, pick apart everything you don't like about your older body and project that those are the things your prey will dislike about you, too.  That's pressure!

I admit.  I have much to say in praise of the younger man save the fact that few can have a decent conversation that involves many of the years of your life.  (Have you tried to explain mixtapes you made holding a tape recorder to your radio to anyone under 30?)  And, I have much to say in praise of the older man, alas, he's not my passion.

I am a cougar.  I think I'm going to be single for a while.  It works for me.

Cheers
