I feel a lot better.

I thought I was the only one who did this on rainy days!

Heck no, I'd wager that there's lots more people around here that do that.

Me included.

I got my new helmet and jacket in the mail a few weeks back. I was running around the house in them.. my friends saw me through the window once i saw them i whipped my imaginary bike around and drove it back to my room and got ungeared before greeting them.

lol, i would have greeted them with the gear on

I did something similar, i went out for a ride before the holloween party my roomates threw a couple years ago, and came back uncostumed. I promptly donned my helmet and walked around a bit talking to people telling them my name was Valentino. I only took the helmet off because the beer wouldn't fit under it.

I mean that they have matured beyond thinking like a 14 year old.

Blimey, blues, you don't ask much, do you?

I've always thought that women 'mature', while men just grow older.
Most of the time we have to rely on a crust of habit and some acquired acting skills to get us through.

It can work well enough!

It depends on what you mean by 'kiss'. In the nineteen-fifties' pop songs that gave me most of my essential education, it was a well-understood euphemism for something else.

So yes, I remember my first bungled and fumbling 'kiss' extremely well. It wasn't 'something else' but it was kinda elaborate. It sort of happened by accident in the haybarn of a local convent. At a extremely tender age I'd become smitten with a young and very experiemental Polish girl whose name nobody could pronounce but everyone called Puff-choo. It all started when I asked her if she wanted a ride down the hill on the back of my trolley (four mis-matched pram wheels and a plank).

Perhaps more dramatic and more comprehensible to me than the 'kiss' itself was the sudden and frantic appearance in the doorway of a tiny nun who thought we had gone into the barn to smoke and were going to burn the convent down.

Hay, I decided, in later years, is much over-rated.

Actually from what I have seen....men's bodies certainly do grow older....but their minds seem to regress.
