Indeed, it is carnaval (Dutch spelling) so it's show time.

Comes to my mind,: American beauty!

I quit my job, start smoking dope, and I buy a Vette, work at Fast Food restaurant and I am craving for my daughters female friend. Hey wait, I don't have a daughter.

A multi fitness machine is already standing in the garage.

I turned 40 last May Gerry...had a mild heart attack in June...so that was the official start to Mid-life crisis! All joking aside while I have always appreciated life, I quickly learned that life is also here to be lived...and not just appreciated. Thus...my hubby bought me a nice little sports car. A '93 Mazda Miata. Not a lot of horsepower but it is a 2-seater convertible and thats what I wanted!

I take it as I type this, Katie is on her way to America?

You need to take it out of the box for it to do you any good.

REALLY??? Damn...guess that explains why I haven't lost any weight since I got the treadmill. You mean to say you have to actually take it out of the box & use it? Damn...sounds like too much work for me. This is going to require a little more thought....can I have another beer please...while I think on this.

40! I die for women in their forties!

Still 12 days and I will be 42. Old fart!

The Mazda I always liked too (here it's called MX5) but the last version is even beautifuler. Unfortunately my hubby doesn't want to buy me one. :(

In her mind she's already on the way. She sits beside me and plays a game to relax. She still doesn't want to go to bed, she's to exited. We have to get up around 4 A.M I will drive her to the airport.

It's to big to fit in a box. I used it a lot when I had more time. Now I exercise at work. I would have to assemble it though I want to use it. But it was already heavy work to bring it in the garage.

And in Denmark we call it Fastelavn (lit. Evening of the Fasting period), I am trying not to act my 42 but think back so I can make the first real Fastelavn for my 3 y.o. tomorrow where she is going to 'Slå katten af tønden' (knock the cat out of the barrel - and they did really do that in the olden days!), basically a piñata made of a barrel.

Edit: nice feature, you get a warning if there has been made other postings while you were editing your reply. Cool and useful.

They are trying to import the name of the MX5 to the Americas. Fine by me. It is a beautiful car. The new ones have a hard-top convertible where the top accordions behind the seats. AWESOME!

FOR KATIE: Have a great trip! I will be thinking of you. Enjoy yourself...don't do anything I wouldn't do (leaves you PLENTY of room!) We expect a full report here when you get back!

I'm 52 and still scared of the day that I'll be finally grown up.
My wife as well as my daughters keep assuring me that day will never come, seeing all my model railway engines, Herpa airplanes and scale cars I collect.
So there's hope.
According to statistics, my crisis should be called 2/3-life crisis or so, but I don't really give a s****.

Grow up? I'm 30 and still get paid to play in the dirt.

Only difference now is that It's beer-fueled play.

It's the good intentions that count.
