twenty-four is the new eighty


i think it is kind of sad that in the past years things have changed so dramatically that when 10 o'clock comes around i am ready for bed. i used to be able to stay up until 2 in the morning, even during the week, and be able to function reasonably well the next day regardless of what i was doing. now, and maybe this comes with working full time, i am lucky if i make it to 11:30 without my eye lids getting heavy.

so tonight, i have decided to fight it. either i can give in and go to bed (which honestly sounds really nice right now) or i can stay up and watch some monty python sketches and try to rekindle some of the youth i had just a couple of years ago. to be honest, i probably won't make it to 1:00 but we'll try.

p.s. i am not trying to say that i feel old at 24, i know i am still very young and hopefully have alot of life to live yet. but because i know i am still young it bothers me that i can't seem to stay up late if i want to. well, off to bed . . .
