01.20.24 I have everything that I wanted as a teenager…, by Joni Klees

 
 
I have everything that I wanted as a teenager, only 60 years later.
 
I don’t have to go to school or work.
 

I get an allowance every month.

I have my own pad.

I don’t have a curfew.

I have a driver’s license and my own car.

The people I hang around with are not scared of getting pregnant and I don’t have acne.

I changed my car horn to gunshot sounds. People get out of the way much faster now.

I didn’t make it to the gym today. That makes five years in a row.
 

I decided to stop calling the bathroom “John” and renamed it the “Jim”. I feel so much better saying “I went to the Jim this morning.”

Old age is coming at a really bad time.
 
When I was a child I thought “nap time” was a punishment. Now it feels like a small vacation.
 
The biggest lie I tell myself is… ” I don’t have to write that down, I’ll remember it”.
 
I don’t have gray hair… I have “wisdom highlights”! I’m just very wise.
 
If God wanted me to touch my toes, He would’ve put them on my knees.
 
Of course, I talk to myself. Sometimes I need expert advice.
 
At my age “Getting Lucky” means walking into a room and remembering what I came In there for.
 
I have more friends I should send this to, but right now I can’t remember their names.
 
Now, I’m wondering… did I send this to you, or did you send it to me?
