You’ve captured it so well. Most of us wouldn’t trade what we have to go back, but we wish somehow we had more balance in our lives, which translates to more excitement. Maybe more ME!

“I want to be as skinny as I was when I thought I was fat.” I love this line. Speaks of youth perfectly!

Awesome! Every single thing you said, I feel profoundly here at 46 … although I would never, never opt to be the same 22 year old I was. Yikes …what a mess. (I was absolutely the girl too tripped out to read the menu … have you ever seen the menu at Jerry’s Famous Deli? It’s, like, a two foot tall, tri-fold nightmare!) But I do miss that flutter of the will-I-get-the-first-kiss and the excitement that comes with the unknown.

In the interest of full disclosure, my husband and I finally stumbled upon some amazing friends with whom we do Vegas, Cabo, Deer Valley, Jazzfest, Coachella (even Ibiza!) sans kids, plus all the legal and illegal things we remember so fondly. But remember how we used to get up the next morning feeling fine? Now, not so much …

No..I definitely don’t want to be 22 again either! I really don’t know how to get over it but I will say that weekends away with my girlfriends are temporary reprieves. It’s coming home and readjusting to the daily grind that makes it all so hard.

Just the fact that she did something with abandon, regardless of where she ended up, is so very appealing. Good for her :)

OMG…I was just grousing the other day that my life is just like the movie “Groundhog Day”! I hope you have a great time on your trip. Live it up! Walk on the wild side! (I’m actually really envious of you. I need to do something like that)

You’re so right. Once you start to feel those regrets, however fleeting, they make you second guess every decision you make about the future.

Awww..I’m so glad you and your friend could relive the best parts of that time of your life. It definitely helps.
