"The lines on my hands are huge. I'm so old. I'm falling apart."
"Nonsense! Your eyes are getting better with age. That's all it is. That's why the lines look bigger to you, it's because you're seeing them more keenly."
It was true. Everything was getting larger and clearer as she aged. The skins of babies resembled the hides of scarred mountains or other pieces of violent scenery. Where other people saw a calm surface, "smooth as a baby's bottom," she saw pits and cliffs.
"I'll climb these new mountains. I'll adventure."
But the baby-climbing expedition was not the success she'd hoped for.
