The frames keep distracting me. I guess it's something I will get used to.

    I am old.

    Someone on the news was talking about something the other day, and to me, it wasn't something that happened too long ago. They said it had been 20+ years. Oh, right, the 80s was 20 years ago...

    *sigh*

    Anyways to T- i've been old since I was like 18, so :p

    You can always use contacts out of the home and glasses in your home, on weekends etc.

    T- wants to do pool opening ceremonies and even though A- 's been in the pool setting it up, it won't be official until he makes the 1st dive of the season :p

    See if you act like that you'll be young. You got Scooby to keep you young :p And remember Orlando Bloom has many years on you. If you're old he's old, and I know you know he's young.

    So, you were born in 1970 or '71? I remember 1970! You're just a kid! And avromark can just hold his smart-alecky boasts about how young he is.
