Hmmm...I think I matured ages ago.

 

I'm still holding out on watching the weather channel.

 

Thanks for that, Kel!

 

Hugs,

Conner

[Noikris]

Whoopie, still mostly a kid. I guess.

I'm not sure how long I can keep up with #23 though, and I've long ago given up on #15.

 

But it's well past the sleeping time for little boys so I think I'll get the 7 hour sleep while I still can.

Ps. Nice to meet you all.

[RTJ]

According to this, I'm still a kid thank GOD!!!

[shadows]

I lack all of them. Somehow I don't think that that's surprising. I really want to know how snow is going to do on this though...

[reapersharvest]

Oh thank god I'm still young. And to think I had an appointment at the Botox clinic for next week

[Conner]

Will all you young men kindly get out of this thread!!!

 

No 55 is coming up next month.

 

Kel is still a pup, too! Compared to me anyway.

 

Hugs,

Conner

[Kel]

Kel is still a pup, too! Compared to me anyway. 

 

Thanks Conner, I appreciate that....

 

...specially now that my knees have started to stiffen up a bit from softball earlier this evening

#19 in the list above with the ibuprofen is all too true

 

Kel

 

p.s. Good news though , our team won the playoffs tonight

[Rocketcnj]

Kel..

 

cool list:) and for me its Icy Hot after my daily work out..or knowing that certain body parts hurt each day (knees, shoulder, lower back, upper back) depending upon what I did at the gym....

 

but I still am a night bird....but time to get shut eye

 

and um, drinking, other then water and coffee, what is beer and wine and fun stuff.....been years that I forget what they taste (I still can taste the margirata from 5 yrs ago..they were tasty)..damn the irregular heart beat and hypothyroid and body producing too much cholestoral.

 

yep, I qualify as to all the items on the list.....oh well, you made me laugh and smile..

 

thanks cool buddy and congrats on the softball win....go for the icy hot

 

and you forgot to add, you know when you spend extra money on a mattress that helps with the aches and pains.....and wake up and feel under 40 again....LOL:)

You've made my day with this. There are a least ten things on that list that still don't apply to me. I guess I'm not as old as I feel sometimes. I guess it helps that my friends are younger than me.

 

22 really made me laugh because I had one of those "I'm never gonna drink again" nights a couple of weeks. It was a going away celebration for a friend who was going out of town for a month. It was a crazy and fun. It's taken me two weeks to have another drink.

[Rocketcnj]

Oh thank god I'm still young.  And to think I had an appointment at the Botox clinic for next week

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

 

Botox at 15? nah..you must be teasing....you can't possibly have a wrinkle on you and that is before the Botox.....too funny....

 

Michael

[Kel]

thanks cool buddy and congrats on the softball win....go for the icy hot

 

Hi Michael,

I remember using that on my back when I threw it out a few years ago. I'll have to pick some up before the championship game gets here. The ibuprofen did take the edge off though, so no pops & creaks getting outta bed this morning

 

I told Mag tonight I need to get out from behind home plate and get into the infield or something next year...this is just hell on the knees, especially the nights we play a doubleheader.

 

 

You've made my day with this. There are a least ten things on that list that still don't apply to me.

 

10 things Mag....you've got me beat! w00t!

 

Hugs to you both,

Kel

[Rocketcnj]

Kel..glad I could help...and ouch your poor knees...I say go for the outfield and Gay, I mean Guy watch...hee hee....there was an earlier post about a sexy footballer with his picture (very woofy hot pic)..so hey, you Guys can do the Boys of Summer in your sexy uniforms....

 

our Sweet Mag I figure she will always be young....after all her idol is Princess Leah, who is one very smart, young and sexy Princess....just the way our Sweet Mag is:)

 

ok, now you can blush Sweet Mag...I am blushing for you too.....you are still one great Princess pal to we Gay Guys..even if you are young and able to do most of the things on Kel's list:)

 

all I can say is thank you to the Icy Hot manufacturer...my bones thank you and so do I..especially after a tough gym work out

I think I may have to respond point-by-point

 

Signs Of Maturity

 

1. Your house plants are alive, and you can't smoke any of them.

 

Don't have any house plants anymore because they are dust/mold traps at trigger my son's asthma. Have never grown anything 'smokable' in the house

 

2. Having sex in a twin bed is more of a memory.

 

Only actually did that for a week.

 

3. You keep more food than beer in the fridge.

 

Does the fridge in the garage get counted to?

 

4. 6:00 AM is when you get up, not when you go to bed.

 

Actually I get up at 5:20 AM

 

5. You hear your favorite song on an elevator.

 

Never, still waiting for the tv commercial though

 

6. You watch the Weather Channel.

 

never -- don't have cable

 

7. Your friends marry and divorce instead of hook up and break up.

 

This requires having friends

 

8. You go from 130 days of vacation time to 14.

 

well, yea, ok

 

9. Jeans and a sweater no longer qualify as "dressed up."

 

Jeans never were "dress up" cause I don't have the butt for them

 

10. You're the one calling the police because those damn kids next door won't turn down the stereo.

 

I just let the wife call after telling her 'it's not so bad'

 

11. Older relatives feel comfortable telling sex jokes around you.

 

Um, actually, I tell most of the sex jokes in the family

 

12. You don't know what time Taco Bell closes anymore.

 

I have teenages, the local drive through is 24 hours, the lobby closes at 1:00AM, and I'll have a bean burrito no onion and a taco no lettuce please

 

13. Your car insurance goes down and your payments go up.

 

Have you seen my incurance premiums? Amazing what getting into accidents because you can't always feel your foot does.

 

14. You feed your dog Science Diet instead of McDonalds leftovers.

 

I would NEVER feed one of my pets McDonalds, that is inhumane.

 

15. Sleeping on the couch makes your back hurt.

 

I have a comfy sofa, but usually my wife sleeps on it to punish me.

 

16. You no longer take naps from noon to 6 PM.

 

Yea, well, I never took naps at that tiime

 

17. Dinner and a movie is the whole date instead of the beginning of one.

 

What means 'Dinner and a movie' you mean actually leaving the house and being around people?

 

18. Eating a basket of chicken wings at 3 AM would severely upset, rather than settle, your stomach.

 

Chicken wings would be a trip to the Emergeny Room as my wife stops breating. Hence I guess that would upset my stomach

 

19. You go to the drug store for ibuprofen and antacid reglarly.

 

Don't use antacid, and my generic ibuprofen and Zantac come from Sam's Club.

 

20. A $4.00 bottle of wine is no longer "pretty good stuff."

 

Don't drink much anymore, so when I do, yea, that ain't near 'pretty good"

 

21. You actually eat breakfast food at breakfast time.

 

Breakfast food is for any time, particularly Cinnamon Toast Cruch.

 

22. "I just can't drink the way I used to," replaces, "I'm never going to drink that much again."

 

Yea, well guilty as charged

 

23. 75% of the time you spend in front of a computer is for real work.

 

No, I seldom do work at work anymore

 

24. You no longer drink at home to save money before going to a bar.

 

I no longer drink much

 

25. You read this entire list looking desperately for one sign that this doesn't apply to you.

 

 

I don't think I did too bad, even though I am old.

Here's number 26, Kel.

 

26. When you have to go from foreplay to eightplay to get the motor running.

 

I think it's funnier when spoken. :wacko:

 

Ok, so it isn't funny at all.

 

Hugs,

Conner

The strange thing is three years ago more of these things applied. Since moving back to civilization I have more enthusiasm for life.
