Some days I wish I could go back to the days where M&Ms were currency and the biggest decision I had to make was wether I wanted Jello or pudding in my lunch. Now it's all about, work, debt, voting, jury duty and time management. I miss the old me.
I just want to take a day off work with my friends and build a fort or go to the zoo. I would give my right arm for my folks to have to sign a permission slip for me to go to a museum again. Making choices for myself kind of sucks. They call it "growing up". I say 'screw that'. You can take your responsability and shove it in your you know where. I just want to eat some grahm crackers and take a nap while someone reads me a story.
Remember the day when you could eat anything you wanted and not gain pound? Or even that putting on weight was a good thing. Now we have to count calories and carbohydrates. I want to drink soda and eat pizza with every topping imaginable without the thought of what it's goin to do to my cholesterol level.
I propose an "inner child day". A day where all of us adults go to the park and play on the monkey bars or swings. A day where we can go to a store and pick out candy instead of picking out the correct letter-head. A day for unbridled happiness like we used to have on Christmas morning. Anyone else with me on this?
Leave a comment to propose a date for our day. As of right now, I'm thinking June 1st. The perfect time of year to spend a day outdoors with your friends.
Until next time remember, age is only a number. True youth comes from within.
