No. I just get unstuck in time sometimes. It happens less and less frequently as the years go by.

Of course, I once experienced my own "Ground Hog Day," but that was some time ago, and, under the circumstances, I wish I could repeat it. I had more of my humanity left then, and I was happier. I... I still held most of my illusions that the world was a good place. I hadn't had to go through many of the things I have gone through now. I was still had all of my heart, and could give it away freely.

Well, it certainly sounds like you SHOULD read it ;)

Or maybe it to much of a "middle age" book, I'm not sure. It's well written and interesting I think.

39.

Sure does feel one helluva lot better than I thought it would when I was in my 20's. Feels a lot better than I generally did in my 20's, for that matter...

33

It's early in my 30s for me, but so far, it's been a pretty good start to my 4th decade. Lots of people say their 20s were their best time, but I felt completely clueless for most of them. Now, I just feel partially clueless, and I gotta say, I like it better. :)

Currently the age of 22, though sometimes I still act a ripe 15. :lol:

We need a new thread. Some of us have changed age groups since this thread was started.

Not me, of course. ;)
