indeed

[a_muse_d]

...that biology was unkind and played mischievous tricks on the mind. She didn't recall the process being a gradual one, as logic had always told her it would be--a little gray hair here, a wrinkle or stiff joint there.

It seemed that one day she looked in the mirror and didn't find the thirty-year-old she was inside, or recognize the ruin looking back at her.

-Patricia Cornwell, from Scarpetta
