The awakening is a telling narrative of actually coming to the realization that you are no longer the person you once were—or thought you were— both physically and mentally.

OMG, I'M SIXTY-FIVE. I'M F**KED is a journey that starts with the shocking, unexpected, brutal realization that you are no longer the young vibrant person of past memories. You awaken to the stark reality that you have somehow entered a new realm, the autumn of your life, without even knowing that you had previously arrived long before you hesitantly begin to acknowledge the obvious truth—that you are just not getting old, you already are. You are now compelled to continue down this newly discovered path, continuing on with disbelief, until reality finally sets in and you find yourself trying and struggling to continue the future downward spiral of your new and uncontrollable path. It is a story that forces you to look into the past, continue in the present, and try to come to terms with the future. It's a comedy of errors, and you’re along for the ride, like it or not—you've got no place to go.

Just a plain old Jersey guy, voluntarily transplanted to Flori-dah some odd years ago, delving into his first attempt at trying to convey my emotional journey into the realization of reaching the point of no return as far as my life goes. I grew up in North Jersey somewhat confused about whether or not I was a true Jerseyite; I referred to myself as a Jersyite, but sometimes because of my close proximity to New York I occasionally passed as a New Yorker. At the time it was cool to be a New Yorker, but I ultimately settled on Jersey. Throughout my life I always enjoyed writing and telling stories but never had the time—now it seems, time is all I have.
