Remember when you would be sitting with a group of friends and someone would pass around gum or mints for everyone, or even cigarettes or a drink, of the alcoholic or carbonated variety, depending on your crowd?
Today at coffee someone got out their ibuprofen and passed it around. We all thought about whether or not we needed it before we passed on it, though. We are definitely in a different stage of life!

When I was a lad, the guys would stand around talking about girls. A bit later, we spent YEARS talking about cars, motorcycles,etc.
Now it's cholesterol and PSA levels, diet, and exercise routines.
I liked the cars and motorcycles a lot better.
That is hilarious!
You people are depressing.
If you were sitting in our coffee group today depressing certainly would not have entered your mind. We laughed good and hard and then hobbled to our cars, on our sore muscles thanks to tennis, body jam, and age. I have on previous occassions thanked the good Lord in heaven above for giving someone the smarts to create ibuprofen.
Obviously, Mr. Eyeballs is young. Tammy's right-we had a blast. We always have a blast. I must say, Sarah always has the best mints!
What a blessing! To have wonderful friends to laugh with you through the ibuprofen days... Awesome!
This totally cracked me up. . .especially since the other night when I met with my VBS co-hort at the McDonalds in Wal-Mart after BOTH of our kids were in bed, the first thing I did was plunk down my own bottle of Ibuprofen on the table so I could have it with my diet Coke chaser.

That's a different stage alright. Come over to my place and I'll pass the tea basket. Green tea with jasmine, Chai Roobios, Twinings in every flavor under the sun, and a pretty wide variety of herbals as well. Whoo-hooo! *twirling the teabag by it's string above my head*
