13:44- 26 year old daily sex here: it's not the intrigued part that is offensive. Not even the zoo animals part. But grossed out? Really? Not that I care, I'm not the person who said it was offensive. I just don't understand how that can be gross.

I'm so old, I am totally not getting the grossed out zoo animal horny 26 year old thread.

Well, I'm 30, and have finally started to feel like an adult! With a white hair, and creaking knees, 2 children, a house, etc...

Sometimes I EVEN feel as if I know what I'm talking about

Being old has its advantages...

We just rented our first home (in the burbs), so far we were living in hi rise apartment buildings in the city. For the first time in my life I feel like an adult besides being part of the work force for the past 15 years and working in corporate for the past 7 years.

That was me who posted that. First of all, I'm sorry I offended you. Really. Let me explain. I think you read it very personally, but what was meant by it was a reflection on the "old people," not you. When you get to be in your forties, part of what you weigh in having sex is the mess and the fuss. Do I want to have sex, as in, how much of a mess do I want to make, do I have to take another shower, etc. I'm sorry I implied you were gross. Really, it was about me being a fuddy duddy, not you.

When you see the car you had in high school infront of you in traffic but now it has historic plates on it.

One day I could read small print and, honestly, the next day (or so it seemed) street signs were blurry.

I call my iPod a "Walkman" a lot of the time. Totally brings back memories of my grandmother calling any refrigerator a "Frigidaire"

I still call CVS "Peoples" by mistake. When I was still doing this a couple years after the name change, I would get these heavy sighs from my friends and a "it's called CVS now, get with it." Now everyone just says, what? People's? What's that?
