I totally disagree. You're just now old enough to do those things. Just think, in ten years you'll be old enough to get drunk and do naked cartwheels in the middle of the street.
Just add orange juice to the list of things you need in your fridge and you'll be fine.
Too Old? Nay lass.
please don't tell me about being too old to do certain things... I'm dating a 24 yr old!!!!
I think you're fine as long as you dont yack on grandma and grandpa's front lawn again...
Yeah, that's sort of the point of getting old, isn't it? To stop giving a shit?
I realized this when I was having beers with ateacher from my high school (I was in college at the time) who was only about 55 but had a big white beard so he played "old" role well.
Whenever he wanted another drink, he would shout to our waitress, whether she was 5 feet away or 500 feet a way, "Miss, another drink here!"
If I tried that shit, I'd get tossed. I can't wait to be old and start shouting at people without fear of repurcussions... sweet.
Wow! Keep writing and let me live vicariously! Sounds like a fun long weekend!
so then what does it mean when you're still doing some of these things at 39?!?
i think you're all good :)
It's the hangovers that make me feel the oldest. That and going to the bars and finding out that I'm the answer to who are those fucking old people.
I'm too old to do that and also have to answer the question "Mommy, I can't find Barbie's surfboard/backpack/lipstick" etc. at 6:30 am... to which my respond is "Sweetie, have you learned to make coffee yet?"
