Age is relative. I don't think I'm old therefore I am not. I'm a young 47.

50 is the new 30! :D

Dunno, I consider myself old at only 55. Maybe just due to the physically demanding work I did for so many years, I just can't do a lot of the things I use to. Stay in school kids. Stay in shape. But, don't earn your living on a job that wears your body out.

My mind on the other hand, I think it just now grew up enough to consider myself 30. All my friends in this town are only 30ish. Am older than most of their parents. Don't know if that's the old hippie in me still hangin' around or what. But I know none of them would consider inviting their parents over for a Fri or Sat night get together. And I can handle it until they start playin' some head bangin' music or hip-hop. At least they all enjoy the 60's-70' rock, so I can usually find a compromise they'll go with.

Hmm... maybe you are right. I don't know what logan's run is. Maybe I'm too young/not complete life to know yet?!

Okay. Mind made up. Finally.

No new computer. No. Must resist unnecessary purchases.

Good Derek.

I'm 18 and ready to retire.

I could go for a move to New Mexico to take pictures of the scenery.

So, 19 is the new 11.5.

Cool. Now I don't have to feel like a creep for playing Pokémon with the kids at the Elementary school anymore.

I'm checkin' in with meh kiddies.
I've been offline lately.
Our phones quit working sunday night and they started working on tuesday night.
During that time i felt SO PRODUCTIVE.
The time I would normally spend online was spent mostly exercising and being outside in this BEAUTIFUL weather. I've been running, doing some sit ups, jumping on the trampoline and some basketball and biking.And i've REALLY been eating a lot healthier. It feels great. I'd like to lose those last couple pounds that never came off last summer.
I'm gonna get riiiiiiippppeeed LOL ;) :p
Yeah right.

Anyway, I thought, "Well, if you feel great, why does it need to stop when the internet is back up?"

So i've been really cutting back on my internet time.
In case you haven't noticed, i'm online a lot.
I realize I have much better things to do in life!

I'll check back in occasionally, but not as often as before.
I'm trying to limit myself to 1-2 hours a day, although i hope it's less than 2, but hey i'm on dial up so I cut myself a little slack.


BUT THE FIRST FEMALE BIGGEST LOSER EVER WAS CROWNED ON TUESDAY!
News!


And law and order SVU was really good too!
And the office tonight!
I love how I talk about exercising and eating healthy, then list hours worth of tv........but hey, I can multitask!
Elliptical+TV=Lazily active!

Hope everyone had a good week. I have another internship interview tomorrow and I am extremely nervous! I think this will be one of my last chances to get a good internship for the summer and I would really like to not live with my parents the 3rd summer in a row.

WISH ME LUCK!! :D

Don't show that your nervous, but you probably already know that, don't sweat it.
