Friends from High School

Gotta friend from high school coming over tomorrow with her husband to have dinner with me and the family. I haven't seen this girl in over 32 years. Even when we were in school we weren't great friends or going out together or anything but but we did do a lot of partying and every time we did it ended up being a hilarious occasion. Found her by accident on Facebook. I just think it is awesome that she is willing to get together after all this time. I noticed a lot of the school daze friends just aren't into it. 30 years is an awful long time but some of the people I am talking about were (I thought) really good friends. I bore my soul to them all through elementary school jr high and high school and after we graduated zip, done later. Really bums me out. My wife just says I need to get over it - she's right but I'm having a hard time doing that

Next up on the 50 Train

Already had the prostate check. Next up? You know it - more stuff up the butt. Colonoscopy! whoo hoo. I cannot wait

When I was a Boy...My Kids hate that

So while we're on the age thing I always seem to compare my kids life with my life when I was a kid growing up. They have never seen a BW TV. We had a 19 in BW Sears as the main family TV! The one the only. Now we have 46 " (and thats kinda small for some folks) flat screen, and 2 other TVs. Some people have TVs in every room. There's a TV in the locker room at the gym. Of course TV is kinda old compared to the computer now. Strange about the TV though is I never watch it. Got TVs all over the place but don't watch it. Bu tI do sit in front of a PC all day

Hello all you middle aged farts!

Hey I just turned 50!
Anyone who is older or younger will think "big deal" but if you just did or will pretty soon its kinda... strange. As I've gotten older my whole thought process has changed, My whole point of view is different. I have become my dad. And while all this is normal stuff, it still seems odd. I don't feel like I 'm 50. But then again how does being 50 feel? How does any age feel? Ok lets not go off subject. How does 50 feel to you?
