		<description>Yeah... planned outings can be drag. Getting old means getting busier. Time to outsource the things that get in the way of fun like cleaning.

		<description>Good post. I&#039;ll rant a bit. There&#039;s the internet for you.

1. Nostalgia
This is a good point. Sadly though, it seems that most people stiffen gradually as they age.  Generations keep to similar patterns of understanding of the world, and as such it takes a long time to change these patterns.

2. Slow Metabolism
I&#039;m one of the lucky few. I eat what I want, when I want and have almost zero variation of my weight (excluding xmas). I&#039;m still young, in my thirties, so this very well might change soon, but a lot of my of equally aged friends share this worry.

3. Higher Film Standards
One word: OhThereIsSomuchCrap!

4. Planned Outings
Oh I like that part. Being a grown up includes doing what you want, when you want! =) Thats the part you didn&#039;t have as a child! (Out of work hours that is..)

5. Kids Nowadays
Yep. This dates back to Ancient Greece. Probably has a lot to do with #1.

6. Awkward Small Talk
I disagree! This has more to do with you than growing up. Just try to avoid the (admittedly many) boring people and I&#039;m sure you&#039;re in for some interesting conversations.  Most people will snuff you off, but so what?

7. Life Decisions
Don&#039;t worry. You&#039;re going to f&#039;it up anyway. You really can&#039;t spend too much time contemplating this. After all, life is just a journey from one problem to the next. Handle them as they present themselves to you.</description>
