Once upon a time I used to meet my friends for drinks on weeknights. Now I meet them for classes at the gym. Instead of drinking and smoking together we sweat together. Its oh so very odd.

What are you doing differently these days?

Paying off a mortgage instead of renting. I'm only 23

dammit.

I'm still renting.

Shouting loudly at the TV and also saying 'ugh' when I stand up and 'ahhh' when I sit down.

instead of working my a** off each day ...rushing round
doing this doing that

i take more me time ... to enjoy everything around me

to breath in all that life has to offer ...to laugh to cry to embrace every emotion

time to remember how blessed i am each day and to always tell those i love...i love them

i wake up at 5am. even on weekends. it's sick, is what it is.

Oh ... that reminds me ...


I Love you Carrie

for all you are

and all you are not

i used to have a fear about getting older, but you know what? it doesnt matter anymore its all a part of life, you are only as old as you feel, and if you keep yourself together, you wont feel old im tryin to grow old gracefully. lol i got more white hair in my goatee than i did 4 years ago, lol but its cool i find it kinda hot

Mach said:

4:30 is hardcore. that's when my cat starts pestering me for his breakfast, but i have a spray bottle by the bed that works as my snooze button for the kitty alarm.

i love the mountains.... and wish i had more time to take for myself.


now that i'm older..... i have responsibility. i remember when my friends and i took off one time to lincoln, about an hour and a half away, just to go out to eat at a nice restaurant and completely on the spur of the moment.

can't do that anymore. no time, no money.

In Roger's Profanosaurus? I remember last month's 'Reserve Chute' entry.

Reserve Chute - Eupasmism used by one's Spunk Bucket (see issue 1092) while she Rides The Rag (see issue 1079) eg. 'Sorry luv, I'm on the rag, you'll have to take me up the reserve chute."

That's not getting older, that's becoming healthy.

I love getting older. I'm enjoying my 30s so far.

Anx said:

yeah thats pretty sick

brownsugar said:

you know it's bad when you get up early to go to the gym and then you get up so early you have to wait for the damn gym to open.

Instead of looking at girls 10 years older than me, I'm looking at girls who are 10 years younger.

15'll getcha 20 man... careful

in the last year or two, my hair has gone full-on GREY. i'd let it make me feel like an old hag, but it's kind of hot. anderson cooper is to me what dennis franz was to george constanza.

the one thing I love most about being in my 30's is that sex is less of a central, driving, need in daily activities.

I also love the fact that people are more respectful and mature, and we're much more careful to respect each other.


Other than that I hate my 30's. The stress is too much.
I can't wait till my 40's.

huh? are you talking 30s in HUMAN years?
