Midlife Crisis
You know you're getting old when....
- Your kids have more friends in church than you do.
- Your kids have more friends in the subdivision/neighborhood than you do.
- Your kids get invited to more parties than you do.
- Your kids bump into more friends at the mall than you do.
- Your kids meet more friends at the company party than you do.
My boss tells me it gets worse as the kids grow older. 99% of the calls to his house are for his kids. He's stopped picking up calls on his land-line.
The 30's are turning out to be the new 40's . The big 3-0 may turn out to be the top of the hill for me.

I am enjoying my thirties, though I have noticed the days feel much shorter, kinda like 12 hours instead of 24.
Kids do remind us how fast years go. For me, it has more to do with the discourse they engage me in. For them, everything has to have an explanation!! At times I want to yell at them, " Hey, you have no right to know that, yet!"
Time is just flying by... Between the Clintons' and the Bushes' that's 16 years!!
I could do with a few more hours per day. It must be an age related syndrome that is sucking away my precious time.
You guys are scaring me. I'm hitting the so-called big 3-0 soon, and now this?
PKW, It's a double edged situation only that the joys outweigh the pains. No pain, no gain.
Am past 3-0. Still partying.
My kids dont bother me yet. The lucky ones are still in my testicles. The unlucky ones either got swallowed and digested by some lucky chick - or ended up in a used condom.
The girls love me coz I am "the older guy"... much more likely to settle than a 20 year old boy, also confident and independent.
Work is good. I do much less but earn much more than when I was youger.
I say what I like and do what I like. Whoever screws with me better have a good lawyer...
30s rocks.
