So I attended the planning party tonight for my, ahem, 30th reunion. Now you know what I will say next don't you? I can't believe it's been 30 years already. Yeah, I don't feel 48. I realized tonight though that I am an old bag! I still feel like I'm 18, in my mind anyway. My body feels like 80 some days though.

How is it when you are a kid, the time goes by sooooo slowly and you can't wait to grow up. Then, the opposite happens as an adult. It should be the other way around, I think. For every 6 months of time say, our kids would age one day. Wouldn't that be great! On the other hand, it would be pure hell for someone with a colicky baby. I'm just lamenting the fact that my kids have grown up and are teenagers, I guess. I tell parents of young kids that I run into, not to wish away their kids years, that they will be teenagers and off to college before you know it.

The trick is, I guess, to enjoy every day and make the most of it, so you will know when you are very old, that you enjoyed life to it's fullest. Then, you will not lament over anything. I still just wish the days would go slower though.

Good night.

    I've decided that the life cycle is all backwards. You should die first, start


    out dead and get it out of the way........ Then you wake up in an old age home


    feeling better every day. You get kicked out for being too healthy, go collect


    your pension, then, when you start work, you get a gold watch on your first


    day. You work 40 years until you're young enough to enjoy your retirement.  


    You party, you're generally promiscuous and you get ready for High School.


    You go to primary school, you become a kid, you play, you have no


    responsibilities, you become a baby, then, you spend your last


    9 Months floating peacefully with luxuries like central heating, spa,


    room service on tap, larger quarters everyday, and finally you finish off as an


    orgasm.
