Oldness

One of my friend’s daughters turns seven today. Another of my friends turns 36 tomorrow. My son had his 12th birthday two weeks ago, and I no longer consider 25 year olds as viable life partners

Damn, I’ve become old.

This sucks. I’m definitely better off than I was ten years ago. But damn, did we have fun back then.

I remember……. but do you? Sound off as to the start of the last decade. I was running and lifting weights for about 6 hours a night , and incredibly, in better shape than I was when training for the Olympics.

Of course, I was smoking, spending a bunch of the remaining hours in or near a bottle, and living from check to check.

Good times.
