HAHAHAH
Smash id love to go on a night out with you!!
Mate last few weeks ive been BANG AT IT!! Must of lost about stone and half with the amount of drugs/alcohol i have been doing, im taking it easy till crimbo now i need to bulk up for the crimbo/new year sessions that lie ahead.
I play indoor football Friday night and Sunday out door. The rest of the time I am with the kids. Weekend goes way too fast.
Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.
I always felt boring compared to uni friends when i turned down invites to pub crawls.
The difference for me was that I was spending my spare cash on training expenses and enjoying it and for me a night out was really expensive.
I would have to pay about $25 for the shirt, $40 odd on drinks and food, $25 on a taxi home and i earnt all my own money working part time. i paid board to live at home or my own rent out of home.
Most of my uni friends did not have any sport to be obsessed with and were fully supported by their parents with no need to work. They were richer in time and money and didn't come up with anything else they wanted to fill their time with.
Back then i felt left out but in reality i think we all have to learn to wipe our own bums eventually and having a bit of a head start has probably been good for me in the long run.
Also having an interest in sport has had a lot of other pay offs too - friends, experiences, challenges, better health etc
I have an obsessive personality - I needed sport as an outlet everyday rather than just a binge on the weekend.
Ultimately i have stories to tell about meeting elite Kenyan runners, running in Brunei, boxing in Japan, meeting Scrap etc etc etc. Wouldn't trade that for all the pub crawls in the world now

Thanks TM, I don't think you're getting old yet either.
Really i think i'm choosing to live in denial about the whole aging process.
I've decided I'm not gonna get to old until it creeps up on me.
My last flatmate had a friend in her eighties who was doing volunteer work in Africa only months before she passed away.
I wanna be like that - active right up until it's as close as possible to my time to go and then I wanna be pretty damn old.
Most definitely not.
I may be older,but I looked at proper adulthood and decided Id take a pass. My newest toy is a tattoo kit. I can do adult things, but I can also be really childish,its one of the things Feur loves about me,and spends her life in dread of.
Within 15 minutes I can create a gourmet dinner,and then demand she sees this really cool play I pulled off on Madden on the PS. Ive had to turn down Hardcore Punk songs so I can have serious boxing negotiations on the phone,actually that last one happens almost daily.
Lefty I hope you don't think your behavior is ok. VD is going to have to have another talk with you.
