Pet peeve

[Robroy]

I used to famously announce to my peers, "you know all this working in the Morgage Industry makes me miss the morality of the Music Business."

That was hilarious! Thanks very much.

I was "trying to make it" for awhile in the early nineties, and rubbed elbows with quite a few music industry people. Some of them were a little slimey.

When I was in my late teens I wanted to be a long haul truck driver. Then I worked for a guy that owned three Peterbuilts that delivered produce from SoCal to Seattle. I rubbed elbows with the drivers and heard all their stories about falling asleep at the wheel and coming to a stop in a corn field, and rampant infidelity and medical issues.

I went into selling Hi-Fi after that.

For reference, I am 51, and no one is accusing me of being grown up.

53 here.
I am of the belief that growing up initiates growing OLD.
That is something I flat out refuse to do.
I will become aged, but I will NEVER become old.

I think it's important to grow up in certain ways. It is good to mature. Critical, actually. But to grow old in spirit and emotional energy is, well, deadly.
