• I only ACT half my age

  So kind of a mixed day for me today. On the way to the grocery store, my mother almost killed us taking a corner too fast. It had just rained and apparently the intersection was slick from oil/transmission fluid mixing with the water. First we spun around one way, and then the other. Luckily nothing was coming in the other lane, and we didn’t hit anything. Scared the crap out of the both of us though! Then a cop pulled us over about a block later, not to give us a ticket, but just to tell my mom to be careful with intersections after it hasn’t rained in a while because of the leaky buildup.

  Then he asked if I was old enough to drive! lol Wow, that’s the lowest age I’ve ever been mistaken for. I mean, I’m 34! It’s pretty good if a cop thinks I’m less than half my age. Let’s hear it for good genes! heh I hope when I’m 68, people mistake me for 33. Considering the women in my family live quite long (into their 90s), there’s a good chance I could live to be 100 with the advances in modern medicine (or even without them). Hopefully I wear those 100 years well. According to my palm (I’m a passably good palmist), I could live up 125 (maybe if I’m really good and take care of myself).

  Oh, another good thing! Yesterday I finally received my “economic stimulus” check. Whoo! Finally! Though I don’t know how much of the economy it will stimulate since I’m going to put it in my savings account. Or… thinking of it now, I could open a CD with it instead. I wonder what the interest rate is right now… Or maybe a savings bond and a CD.

  I think it’s funny though. On the check, it has a series of numbers and letters. The last bit of the code are the letters ANDOVERSTIMULUS. Funny, I don’t feel a bit over stimulated. How about you? lol
