Who cares how old you really are. How old do you FEEL?

[prolesunited]

After all, they say age is only a state of mind.

I feel about 28 or 29. I had been feeling MUCH older and was tired and sluggish quite a bit of the time. I did a major overhaul of my lifestyle, correcting a number of unhealthy habits.

I feel a lot more energetic and my outlook on life, despite the turmoil in the world, has greatly improved.

So, how old do you feel? What do you think is making you feel older or younger than you really are?

[VermontDem2004]

1. I feel like I am 180

[GOPisEvil]

2. mid-late 20s

Although I'm 35, I live in an apartment, I'm single, don't really own any property. I go out listen to live music, drink beer and hang out with my friends. :shrug:

[prolesunited]

4. Oh, grow up!

Will ya? ;-)

[GOPisEvil]

7. Never!

I think I'll go home and jump on my mattress! :bounce:

[VelmaD]

8. 3 little monkeys...

jumpin' on the bed
One fell off and broke his head.
He went to the doctor and the doctor said.
That's what ya get for jumpin' on the bed.

[GOPisEvil]

11. Jeez...next you'll tell me I'll put an eye out

if I ask for a Red Ryder BB gun. :P

[VelmaD]

14. Uhn-uh

I loved my Red Rider BB Gun when I was little. I wanted to be a cowgirl when I grew up. :-)

[prolesunited]

12. That sounds like fun!

Can I join you? Maybe a pillow fight afterward? :D

[GOPisEvil]

13. Actually, today's a good day to play outside.

Sunny and purty! 30 more minutes before I go home, er, to the gym...to be inside more. Er...

[VelmaD]

15. Go jogging instead.

Or for a walk or something. If you go to the gym you won't get out til it's dark outside. You should go play in the sunshine.

[GOPisEvil]

18. Maybe...jogging?

Ouch - hard on the knees. Plus, I wimped out and only did cardio yesterday. I need to pump some iron. :P

[VelmaD]

19. By all means...

go make yourself buff and manly. :P

[GOPisEvil]

21. I saw a woman at the gym on Sunday...

6 feet tall, with broader shoulders and bigger muscles than me. She was a pretty woman otherwise, but she could kick my ass with one hand while wearing a blindfold.

[VelmaD]

23. And you would like that...

wouldn't ya? Ya perv. :evilgrin:

[GOPisEvil]

24. Umm...I don't mind that a woman CAN kick my ass.

I just don't want her to LOOK LIKE she can kick my ass.

Although...this woman could have been fun. :evilgrin:

[VelmaD]

27. Yup...

you're a perv.

Next time you see her at the gym go up and talk to her man. Don't make me make that an order. ;-)

[GOPisEvil]

29. That was the first time I'd ever seen her there.

A perv? Me? O8)

[VelmaD]

31. No, that idiot behind you.

:eyes:

Of course you.

And if that's the first time you've seen her at the gym that could be a good thing. Maybe she's new in town and could use some new friends.

What's the worst thing that can happen if you go up to her and strike up a conversation?

[GOPisEvil]

32. The worst thing?

She could squash me like a grape. Ouch. :D

I'll say hi next time I see her.

[VelmaD]

34. If she squashes you...

you just holler and I'll come KICK HER ASS! Sorry, channeled Skittles there for a second. ;-)

And you better say hi...cause you know I'm gonna nag you about it the next time I see you. :-)

Speaking of which, are you gonna be at my concert Saturday?

[GOPisEvil]

35. Gonna be a game-time decision.

I'm making a run down to San Antonio. I should be back in time, but you never know. :eyes:

[VelmaD]

36. That's cool

Seems like we picked a weird weekend for it. I've gotten lots of "maybes" this time around. :shrug:

[prolesunited]

17. Fine!

Be that way. <-- Storms off in a petulant huff.

BTW, it's 66 degrees and sunny in Chicago today — in November!!!

[GOPisEvil]

20. Isn't that a sign of the apocalypse?

66 and sunny in Chicago in November...:wow:

I distinctly remember it being COLDER when I was there last October. I got hosed! :grr:

[pmbryant]

33. Sunny in Chicago in November!?

I don't believe it! ;-)

There was one November when I lived there when the Sun only came out for 3 days that month, and I don't think that was terribly unusual.

November was always my least favorite month, weather-wise, in Chicago.

--Peter

[prolesunited]

37. Not only sunny

did you catch that 66 degrees part?!?!?

I just have this sinking feeling we are going to have to pay for all of this unseasonably warm weather we've been having quite soon.

[pmbryant]

38. LOL

I'm in Texas. 66 degrees no longer sounds particularly warm to me. :D

Enjoy your fair November while it lasts.

:hi:

[SOteric]

3. On Mondays, something close to 102.

On 'snowdays' something close to 12.

[scucci]

44. Me too!

And my "mental age" decreases as Friday approaches. Looking forward to the first snow day of the season. Yippee!

[Tandalayo_Scheisskopf]

5. Every day...

Every stinkin' day of my life I vaccilate wildly between 9-12 and 165. I don't have Bipolar, either. Just a common American citizen who tries to remain aware of things going on around him.

Chimpy will do this to you.

[VelmaD]

6. Depends on when you ask.

I am a firm believer that you are only as old as you act so I try to act 16 as often as possible.

Unfortunately having a job and bills to pay gets in the way of channeling my inner-juvenile-delinquent.

[BiggJawn]

9. late 70's...

I'm 46. RealAge says 59 is more like it.

Hope this new doctor I signed up for can help me do something about the spread...

[pmbryant]

10. I still feel 25

Definitely not 20, that's for sure. But I don't really feel any different than I did 10 years ago, so 25 sounds reasonable.

But how much longer will this good feeling keep up?

:scared:

--Peter

[supernova]

16. I varies during the day

This afternoon I felt about 80, but the JD thread made me feel about 14! :D

[Lizz612]

22. I feel 18 but...

unlike the rest of you I AM 18!!!
Hahaha! :evilgrin: Heehee!

Seriously some days I feel 8, some days I feel 30 something
(routine routine routine...), but never over that, how can I? 18 is wonderful!

And I get to make the rest of you old fogies feel ANCIENT!!! :evilgrin:

[moz4prez]

30. i'm 18 too

but i've been told by friends and teachers that I act like a fifty year old. and wtf, who the heck develops an ulcer at the age of 16 anyway? it doesn't seem right. but "life is good, and it's always worth living, at least for a while."

[JohnKleeb]

43. Hey I feel my exact age too

Although I flip from time to time too.

[XNASA]

25. I'm 46, RealAge tells me I'm 43. I feel better than ever.

Truly. I can't ever remember feeling better. I'm sure I've lost a step, but with all the partying I used to do in my 20's and 30's, I actually feel better now than I ever have.

I'd say I feel 30? I guess. Although when I was 30 I felt 50.

[prolesunited]

28. I wouldn't have guessed your real age

I guess partying really takes it out of you. Wonder how we'll feel Dec. 7. ;-)

[peacebuzzard]

26. Today I feel my age: 51. My Doc today said "High Blood Pressure"

9/11 I was 120 lbs, Iraq war begins, 130 lbs. Today: 144!! Shit I could hardly believe it. As I left his office and swallowed my very first high blood pressure pill and stuck the script for Thyroid meds in my purse I certainly felt my age. I am bummed, and resolute to begin exercising today. As a matter of fact, now. Sign off.

[prolesunited]

40. I'm sorry

I hope you feel better soon. I sometimes eat when I'm stressed out, too, as do a lot of people. However, exercise will help you with the stress and help take off the pounds.

Take care.

[Kamika]

39. Im 21 I feel like im 17 !!

I think ill get 20 when im 25.. and 25 when im 30.

Then ill get 30 when im 35 and stay 30 till im 49

[Sting]

41. I'm 21...

and most days when I drag ass I feel like I'm 121.

[JohnKleeb]

42. 16
