Wishing to be older and vice versa

[Ayin McFye]

I think if i could stay any age it would be right where i'm at now. I'm 28 years old, i'll be 29 in June. I'm perfectly happy with the age I'm at. I just need to find the PAUSE button now.

I just figure that I'll save my game now, and when things go wrong later in life, I'll reload my saved game and be 28 again.

I'm pretty happy being 21 now...

I turn 50 this year, which is a milestone, but I don't intend to make a big deal of it. I remember when I hit 25 thinking I was no longer a youth because my car insurance rates went down. Instead of being happier, I was depressed. I still go to the gym and can lift more weight and run greater distances than when I was 25.

One thing about getting older, it sure beats the alternative.

Another thought is that a lot of folks don't get the option to grow older.

I'm at the stage now where I'm actually looking forward to my senior discounts! If I could only get an advance on them now.

I'm pretty much is that category. I'm 61, and unless a cure is found to stop the progression of nerve damage to my autonomic nervous system I'll be lucky to hit 65. But rather than feel sorry for myself I enjoy life. Hasn't stopped me from cracking open the throttle of my 650 Suzuki mega-scooter out on I-70. It'll do 115 MPH. I took it up to 101 and then backed off since I'm a mature 61 year old . Plus I have 4 kilts on order that I plan to thoroughly enjoy.

I figure, I'm going to get old and die anyway, and I can't do anything about it, so why worry?

I said 5,000 because it would mean I must be immortal, and I'd have to be the smartest man alive with that much experience.

I was the smartest man alive when I was 14. Just ask my parents.

no longer the smartest man alive.

I can remember hitting 29 an thinking OMG,next year i'll be thirty,and i felt very old.I must have been nuts.
