I opted to go the extra hundred bucks and ordered the "no line" bifocals, so it's not like anyone will really be able to tell. It's just the idea that they're "bifocals" that gets me. The chronological addition of the extra number to my age with each passing birthday really doesn't phase me. It's reaching this "milestone" that kind of sucker punched me outta nowhere.
Wait'll you get your first piece of junkmail from the AARP! I'm under 50, and it's already arrived.

As for the lack of grey, good for you. Of course if you grow a beard or mustache, there'll be gray all over the place; beard hair's on a different timetable than scalp hair. I know a few guys who jettisoned their beards around age 40; a gray beard makes you look like, well, you're _ready_ for the AARP.
