Recently, Alex and I were talking about our trip to Tampa for Robin's birthday. I asked him what his favorite part was. He said, "Playing ping pong until 2:30 in the morning, dancing, singing, and swimming in the pool." I said, "Yeah, like kids again." Then, he said something very profound (of course, it's Alex!). He said that we get old because we forget to play. He's right.
What have you forgotten to do since you were in high school? Or, what will you decide to do now so that you won't get old?

I hereby decide to date college giels again. although I have no idea what we'll talk about. LOL
you have heard that the 80's are back? talk about that.
Byron, I don't think you would have a problem with conversation... your a man of many talents....
Well I had a boss that said something that made me think long and hard and I adopted this phylosophy (if i even spelled that correctly). The older you are the less you care about what people think or say about you. I have always tried to march to my own drum but now I do it even more.
I guess it's not a matter of doing what I did as a kid but having that care free way of thinking as I did when I was a kid.
seriously, We all will get older. I thing we should embrace our age whatever it is. live and enjoy life and the people we have in it. then do as jeanne said grab your own drum and beat it however you want and you just may find others dancing to you beat.
Something that impacts me a lot and has an effect on what I do and who I do it with is the ages of my kids! I had kids early, but a lot of my friends waited. So here I am, age 40, getting my groove back with kids who can stay home alone and my friends can't "come out and play" cause they don't have babysitters, etc.
