How did I miss this one? Well I found it at Patrick's Place, so go there and leave a link to your answers!
One last weekly meme. Why? Oh, I don't know...call me a glutton for punishment, I guess.
The concept for this one is one is pretty simple: there is one topic, two different questions, but you pick the one you want to answer and answer only that one.
Sounds easy enough, right?
Well, let's have a go of it, shall we?
THIS WEEK'S TOPIC: AGE
QUESTION A:
When you were in high school, if you could have picked any age to jump to and stay that age forever, which would you have picked and why?
or
QUESTION B:
Do you feel your present age now? In other words, do you feel that you are younger, older or right at your actual age emotionally and physically, and why?
I pick A: I wanted to be 18….that meant I got to be out of the house, independent, on my own! And I could stay young forever. Okay, that only worked until they changed the legal drinking age to 19, so then I wanted to be 19 forever. Today….I’ll pick 25. But the really funny thing is that when I turned 25 I was really depressed and cried a lot. Why? Because someone thought they were being funny and told me “You’re a quarter of a century old now!”. Oh to be “a quarter” again! Ha!! Life was so much simpler when I was young and naive. ;)
Okay...I was just reminded by the mere presence of my 12yr old daughter, who was born on my birthday, that now all of the birthdays are hers, thereby rendering me 29 forever. Yipee!!

B: I do feel my age... sometimes older cuz' my bones always hurt.. :D
Oh how pitiful! My poor 12yr old feels old in her bones!
How neat your daughter was born on your birthday!!
I like the age I'm at right now (47) although I have no idea how I got to be this old. I'm finally understanding it all, LOL.
betty
lol My mom cried through her 25th birthday too lol Because of the exact same reason, a quarter of a century and what did she have to show for it? lol
