Trivial Pursuit

Lately I am having all of these realizations about how I am getting old ... not using a cane, fake teeth and depends old, but just older I suppose. Last night I had dinner with my friends Giselle and Matt from the Y. We are great friends and an odd group to say the least ... Giselle is 38, single and living with her parents, Me, 31, married, kiddies and Matt who is 22, has a girlfriend and just graduated from CU. 3 people at completely different phases in life, but we all get along so well. Matt has said before, "other people just don't get us" ... true, they don't and I think that's awesome.

Was that the reason I am feeling older? No ... just a little background information. After dinner with the "they just don't get us" group, we played Trivial Pursuit 90's edition. Have you played Trivial Pursuit ... the game that I could never answer a question ... maybe a random sports question every now and then, but shoot, that was a hard game. Last night though it was the 90's edition and besides the Disney version of Trivial Pursuit which my 6 year old could answer, I thought this would be one I could play ... answer questions without seeming like a complete fool ... and I did! I remembered things that I had no idea held space in my brain ... I was AWESOME, but I also thought, uh oh, I am getting older ... I can actually play Trivial Pursuit and win ... that means I have been alive long enough to remember enough random events and trivia from an entire decade ... a whole box worth ... yes, I am getting older.

And ... no, I didn't win ... the 22 year old did ... but he is a dork and he cheated! (wow that sounded "older") ... is it possible to be older and still be completely immature???

Don't answer that.
