So here's my list of things you should do or remember as you get older. That's assuming that you can remember things as you get older, in case you can't (see number 1):
1. Take good notes!!! They may be fun to read later in your life or act as good reminder when you need to remember your name.
2. You may think your thirty when your sixty but, believe me, your body knows the difference between reality and wishful thinking.
3. No definitely means no unless your the one saying it, then the translation is evidently open to interpretation.
4. When you realize that everyone has started calling you 'sir' or 'folks' it means you either look as old as you are or they think you can tip well! Either way it's not a good sign.
5. Just because you can bend over does not mean you can get back up (this may or may not be related to number 6 below).
6. Man boobs are real.
7. All those great actors your age that look like they are in the best shape of their lives and that seem to have the body of a twenty year old, have enough money to buy the body of a twenty year old. You will not look like them any more then you looked like them when you were, well, a twenty year old.
8. Money does not buy happiness, it just makes being unhappy more fun.
9. Being 'comfortable in your own skin ' not only applies when your being an arrogant asshole at twenty years old, it can also be applied to your actual asshole on a good day, when your seventy years old.
10. If you do not consider yourself a spiritual person when your young it's OK. You will be a spiritual person when your old, because by then you will have tried all the other options and none of them will have worked. With any luck you get smarter as you get older.
And remember, it's not how many words you write, it's what you say when you write them.
