A fun/depressing barometer I've always incorporated to how old I feel is comparing myself to certain prevalent professions.

For example, I always loved watching March Madness as a kid. And these guys were like men to me. Then before I knew it, I was older than them, and I felt old because suddenly these guys were only kids.

Then it turned to professional players who usually don't retire until their late 30's in most cases. Well I'm now older than 95% of professional athletes.

Next up? I'll probably be older than the next President of the U.S.

Jeezus Christ. This sucks but then again the alternative isn't that great either, is it?

What a mindfuck.
 
bread. a bunch of us were in our late-20s, early 30s when we started a fantasy baseball league in 1984. one of the 16 owners dropped out following the 2009 season and we filled his team with the son of another owner who is 23 (he's an e.m.t. in tampa, as a matter of fact). the league is older than him, and though it's a silly game this fantasy baseball thing, it's probably been my best 'age barometer' the past 27 years.

i'm going back to this thread to write about how big of an idiot I am when it comes to Chris. I'm so excited b/c we had talked (I had talked) about spending all weekend together. We agreed on this Friday night but the rest was up in the air, so we're texting and I asked about Sat too, and he didn't answer that part of the text (but he responded to the other stuff we were discussing) so i asked again in a very casual way ...

"hey so fri night is great let me know if u want me to meet u in nyc, and do let me know about sat. i'd like to spend all weekend with u but if not i'll make plans with jL. would much rather b with you"

he wrote: "count me in for fri. not sure on sat. make plans with JL"

my heart sunk and i know i should have expected this. i'm the one who approached us getting back together as a "friends with benefits" situation... but i still really wanted more than just a night with him. we've been together twice since we broke up. once was a week ago and once was a month ago. a month ago he had to leave at 5am for the airport after our night together. last week i had to leave at 6am for the airport after our night together. we get a long so well and really really enjoy each other. but he doesn't want to be with me beyond the bedroom.

and i know why, because he's trying to keep me on a shelf, and keep me at bay. if he can keep me just to sex, which i love love love with him (i text him dirty things all the time, he loves it), then he can keep me from getting upset about his not being around. and the reason we broke up was b/c i was more into him (love) than he was with me (like).

but i still REALLY wanted this weekend with him. hopefully i can get Saturday day with him.

he says he's out of town right now. i don't even think i believe him.

anyway my response was: "major :("

and then i wrote: "JL has to work early sunday so she cant really do sat. r ur plans all night? really was hoping to get more than just a night with u... its been awhile since we hung out. but at least ill get to fuck u all night friday".

i was trying to sound cool, but i think what i wrote is totally transparent.
