Clancy Made Me Do It

And now that I've found the site, I can't get off it. Here, for example, is my putative "real" age:





You Are 25 Years Old



25


Under 12: You are a kid at heart. You still have an optimistic life view - and you look at the world with awe.

13-19: You are a teenager at heart. You question authority and are still trying to find your place in this world.

20-29: You are a twentysomething at heart. You feel excited about what's to come... love, work, and new experiences.

30-39: You are a thirtysomething at heart. You've had a taste of success and true love, but you want more!

40+: You are a mature adult. You've been through most of the ups and downs of life already. Now you get to sit back and relax.

What Age Do You Act?

One of the options at this site, by the way, is to find out at what age you will die. Uh, pass.

Um, I just did mine, and it told me that I'm 33. Hellooooooooo. I'm 32! Scary. Boring.

Update: the good thing about the "When will you die" test is that one of the questions is "Do you have a dog?" I'm apparently going to die when I'm 67: "You're pretty average when it comes to how you live....And how you'll die as well." nice.

Yeah, when I'm just in the right mood, I'll do the when-will-you-die test, because it's occurred to me that the thing will probably tell me I'm already deceased.

Hey, I'm 26! Let's get together and do all those 20-something activities, Becky. :-)

I think it was the preference for cake and ice cream over wine that did brought my age down.

I picked the wine over the ice cream, but it was Spongebob that kept my age down, I'm thinkin.
20-something activities? Halsey Street in Chicago has some great blues joints. At one memorable C's, I stayed out all night on Halsey Street on Saturday night, went back to my hotel & picked up my bags, and then caught a 5:00 a.m. flight. That was twenty-something, when I was actually forty-something. Now that I'm fifty-something, I think I'd be lucky to make it to midnight. But wait! What am I saying! I'm only 25!
