Splashing in puddles.

Skipping (although I only do this when I'm out walking with my dadsmiley - biggrin).

Confident people make me feel young...but in a bad way.

Being the youngest person in the office...although the fact that everyone was gobsmacked when they found out my age makes me feel old.

Being reminded of the "Vienetta incident"smiley - laugh

Talking to my big sister...and my mum...and my mother in law...and the garage - again usually all in a bad way.

Other professional women. The ones with the grown-up hairdos and nice suits, and perfect makeup, and a general air of competence.

I aspire to all this, and probably put it over reasonably well but when chatting to one of these women I always feel like the teenage apprentice - (I'm 29!)

I never got many of them, instead they just seem to be stretched out over time.

Balancing upside down!

In primary school we used to do handstands and headstands and stuff all the time. Most young kids love being upside down, whether by their own force or being held by someone else.

Now I do it for training purposes rather than the sheer joy of being alive, but it still makes me feel young and carefree!!

I'm nearly 28 so my friends think this is all very weird.smiley - erm

Staying up till 4 am playing the X-BOX and realizing that I can play just was good as I could on my Atari. Yet that age and education have given me the ability to yell more colourfully at the TV. smiley - bleep'n smiley - rocket

Tearing it up on an old-school Nintendo. I ran Super Mario Bros. 3, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 2, and Tecmo Super Bowl over Thanksgiving weekend like I hadn't stopped playing.

I can't make heads or tails out of an X-Box and to know I still have the reaction time and coordination after not touching one of those controllers in two years was really gratifying. smiley - smiley Makes me want to school my brother-in-law (who's nearly 15) about how to *really* play video games...

Going anywhere, talking to anyone, realising how much I still have to learn. I'm not saying I don't like it, I'm not saying I'm not looking forward to learning, but I'm constantly reminded of my ignorance about life.

There's only one way to find out. smiley - smiley

clzoomer- a bit woobly

Playing with children, telling awful puns, eating grilled cheese sandwiches with tomato soup. Burping out loud, falling asleep with a pet on me, seeing how far I can swim underwater. smiley - smiley
