    Same age as me @Blame73 and I lurve this stuff....

    I'm stuck between between being 42 and the behaviour expectation that comes with that, and my brain that keeps telling me I'm actually 22 and to get lots of hobbies and fun things to do!!! :D

    Someone had this in his signature "We don't stop playing because we grow old; we grow old because we stop playing."
