I felt like I was trapped in a cross between an old SNL skit and a Suave commercial
There I was, sitting on the bus, just wishing that I was home. I wasn't paying much attention to the people around me, cause I'm selfish like that. Plus, I was tired. I was looking out the window when the loudest conversation on the bus, which was also the only conversation on the bus, reached my ears. Three men were discussing taking care of their bodies, and one guy completely shocked the other two by telling them that he was 40 years old. I have to say, I was surprised too, since he looked to be in his late twenties/early thirties. I still have no idea how the conversation started, but I kept listening from that point; anyway, the old-but-not-really gay said how it's important to start taking care of yourself when you're young, which is typically the time when people pay their bodies enough attention and do all sorts of things to abuse it. He listed it all - drugs, poor diet, little exercise, too little rest, etc. I put in the etc, but he took a minute or two to list every possible thing that one could do to one's body. After he finished, I wasn't just impressed with how young he looked - I was just shocked that anybody could do all that and still be alive.That guy must have the best genes ever.
