Giggle Your Life Away To Eternity

Ah, what a relaxing weekend at the beach. I never actually went into the water, and that was partly the fault of the strong riptides that forced the lifeguards to put up red flags (no swimming).

I had a lot of time to just veg out and relax with my brother, parents, grandmother, and great aunt. I especialy enjoyed my time with the veterans of this game we're all stuck in called "real life". My grandmother , 83 years old, and my great aunt, 88 years old, are both contently living out their lives. It's amazing to think that people can live for so long and not get bored, but it's also amazing that people can live that long without cracking under the pressures of life. What I learned from them about living a long life is staying happy through it.

So... that's what I'm trying to do! I've always been one to crack jokes and make people smile and laugh; making others feel good makes me feel good. Is that really the secret to longevity? Well then, you might be seeing me around for a lot longer!
