    There are better examples than this in life but here's mine for the day...

    3 PM...time for afternoon snack. Check macros. I need some carbs.

    Brain: (like a pouty child) "But I don't wanna eat carbs. I want peanut butter".

    hand: grabs PB jar...
    Peanut butter has carbs...

    I've got the word 'Kid' tattooed on my back to always remind me to have fun in life and to keep a young heart!

    I thought those were for a mid-life crisis.

    we never grow up, we just get better at pretending we've grown up.

    Hell, I hope not!! My goal is to become more and more "real". I'm naturally a fairly serious person with a gr8 smile and I love laughing. I wear rainbow woollen sox under my long black skirt. I dye my hair red and when I wear fingernail polish I try to have a different colour on each nail. My son, when he was in his mid-twenties still jumped on the back rail of the supermarket trolley and went whizzing around the store - he received smiles not frowns lol. One day he skipped going down the Mall, so I did the same. Gee it felt GREAT!!! That's what I want to be when I grow up - unpredictable. I'm only 55 now. Oh and my last wee story - when my son was about 6 years old my grandfather would have been 84. We were visiting - my grandparents lived on a section that was reasonably steep in parts. The boys both came inside and my son said they had been doing roly poly. Thinking of Pop's age I assumed they were lying on their sides rolling down the hill and only found out this year (my grandfather is long gone) that no, it was the somersaults they were doing, head first body tucked under. I felt sick lol. So Devon's goal in life is to do Roly Poly with his great grandson when he is 90!!

    you know, i still like to assemble lego sets occasionally. i was in denmark a while back with a friend, and he likes to build lego sets as well. anyway, there was this big lego store in copenhagen and we went in. he picked up a lego version of the millennium falcon (star wars space ship thingy), and as we were both looking at it, he said "yeah, but it's so big you can't really play with it".

    something about the use of the word 'play' made me feel a bit awkward. i just sort of mumbled, "yeah, true", as if this was a common problem for most men approaching 30. i guess im not much better, as i was in the store as well, but i like to use the analogy of a cannabis user looking down on a heroin addict: neither of us are behaving normally, but he appears to have drawn his line a bit further back than i have mine.

    so anyway, we never really grow up. i like to think that as we go along we learn how to play the game of life a bit better, but that's about it.
