Resignation from Adulthood.

[plural]

I am hereby officially tendering my resignation as an adult.

I have decided I would like to accept the responsibilities of an 8 year old again.

I want to sail sticks across a fresh mud puddle and make a sidewalk with rocks.

I want to think M&M's are better than money because you can eat them.

I want to lie under a big oak tree and run a lemonade stand with my friends on a hot summers day.

I want to return to a time when life was simple, when all I knew was colors, multiplication tables, and nursery rhymes, but that didnt bother me because I didnt know what I didnt know and I didnt care. All I knew was to be happy because I was blissfully unaware of all the things that should make me worried or upset.

I want to think the world is fair.

I want to think that everyone is honest and good.

I want to believe anything is possible.

I want to be oblivious to the complexities of life and be overly excited by the little things again.

I want to live simple again.

I dont want my day to consist of computer crashes, mountains of paper work, depressing news, how to survive more days than there is money in the bank, doctor bills, gossip, illness, and loss of loved ones.

I want to believe in the power of smiles, hugs, a kind word, truth, justice, peace, dreams, imagination, mankind, and making angels in the snow.

So......heres my checkbook and my car keys, my credit card bills and my 401K statements.

I am officially resigning from adulthood.

And if you want to discuss this further you'll have to catch me first cause.......


"TAG! YOU'RE IT!"

I wanna know what planet he's living on.

O hasn't been that naive since he turned three... I just got a phone call from him where he did a full-court press to get me to loan him the additional 8 bucks he's going to need to buy some power ranger's crap.

In case you've forgotten, he turns five next month.

As of now, absolutely nothing... My mother is coming sometime in april to celebrate O's birthday, but now that the basement's done, there should be more than enough room if you guys overlap.

mmk, I'm heading down to ft lauderdale to see my little sister, thought I'd swing by on the way back, as of now its looking like I'd arrive on the 15th or 16th and depart on the 18th or 19th.

subject to change and feasability of course.

Sure, and then there's the extra God points we get for drugging you, and secreting you away to the chamber where the congregation can stone you.
