I'm 10 years younger than you, and I can't make it through the day without several 'pre-sleeps'. :mrgreen:
Practice makes perfect! :wink:
and your mother lets a child like you outside by yourself?
My wife asked me the other day why the older I get the grouchier I get.
I told her it's the new medicine the doctor has me on.
She said "What medicine is that?"
I told her it's a sedative/hypnotic like Seconal, phenobarbital or nembutal but it's called "fuckital" and it's obviously working. :)
First time in my life I ever seen that woman speechless.

I'll bet she won't be for long if she reads this
She is sitting right here. She don't go in much for Chit Chat but she can shop till she drops on the internet.
If all you seen of her was all of her shoes you would swear I had married a centipede.
We had a conversation about that one time.
She asked me "Why do you have so many guns?"
I replied.."For the same reason you have so many shoes. The stock on this one matches my belt. The stock on that one brings out the highlights in my eyes.
This one is not blued , its in the white and you can't be a carrying that around after labor day.
That one has a tall magazine, that one has a short magazine.
Those 2 are pump shotguns. How many pumps do you have? I know its more than 2 in that walk in shoe closet of yours.
That one is stainless steel for carrying around the pool, swimming hole or the beach."
By that time she had gone off to the kitchen to bother the grandkids.
That's another thing about getting older. Now I take time to explain things to the wife. :)

The women like the shoes and purses. When my wife gets a new purse I look over at the dog and say "That's a slightly different shade than the other purses. Women can see shades of purse and shoe color that men, dogs and even cats can't see. Shade differences that can't even be detected by the most accurate state of the art colorimeter. Now she is going to have to get a pair of shoes to match that purse".
Sure enough in a few days it shows up.
That's another thing about getting older, we let her do wh**ever she wants shoe and purse wise. We don't say a thing about it. And the dog stays clear of those shoes now.
The poor dog narrowly survived puppyhood after the famous "Jimmy Choo" incident where the dog decided those new pumps would make good chew toys.
To this day I still call them the "Jimmy Chew" pumps.

I am in awe of you powers.
Thank you for reminding me.
I can't tell you why I brought it in the house in he first place.
It is sitting next to me as I type.
It is only even money or less that it ends up in my van later today.

If it looks like I am it is just that I am checking my eye lids for pin holes.
