"Are you thinking about retirement?"

No.

I think of myself as a writer, and writers don't retire.

"It was the beginning of massive amounts of fun and satisfaction of so many hungers for me. Miss friends in other state but don’t miss anything else."

I have been integrating my fun and satisfactions into ordinary living as much as possible. I have no intention of deferring gratification beyond a useful limit.

Mostly my employment is like getting paid for being in an exercise salon. It keeps me limber, and pays for the cost of postage stamps.

Even when they are bald?

That is because of your wisdom and balance. Before 2008, I didn’t have any.
