The New Adult in our house
 
Just registered for motorcycle safety classes.

And I took him to register to vote on his birthday (Thursday)

Did he say you're not the boss of me anymore? :haha:

Now he can vote down the 21 y.o. minimum age requirement for riding without a helmet.

The same year that Texas passed the law that said motorcycle riders didn't have to wear helmets, Austin passed a law that said bicycle riders did.






And then they amended it a year later to only bicycle riders under 18, because even Austin has its liberal-hippie limits and people were pissed.

And he doesn't want to crumble that cookie because he was drug up by smarties. :yesnod:

That's what makes you feel old. Not your age, your kids' age.


... Eta.... And by you, I mean me.

xoxoxoBruce 04-17-2017 12:46 AM

Right you are Jim, having no spawn has kept me youthful and spry.


Well OK, immature and doddering. :blush:

Clodfobble 04-17-2017 08:26 PM

I know, right? He grew on me.

monster 04-17-2017 09:59 PM

Did I tell you I calculated that on June 13th, Beest will have been married to me for exactly half his life?

:eek:

monster 04-17-2017 10:00 PM

(we met when we were 18/19 and married nearly 23 years ago, aged 23. He just turned 46.)

monster 04-17-2017 10:21 PM

January 18th for me. Yes, I just sat here and workeded that out.

BigV 04-17-2017 11:55 PM

To monster and Beest:

That's awesome! And since it's logarithmic, you'll get to 2/3rds even faster now.

And I started dating him at 19. Which I gleefully remind Mr. Clod of, every time he starts talking about how young my stepdaughter (18) is. Granted, there's no comparison between who she is and who I was, but maybe someday it'll make him empathize with my dad a little more.
