I had the strangest flashback today. All of the sudden I remembered as a kid how just after my bathwater had drained and the tub was still slick I would scruntch up my knees and somehow spin round and round. I remember my shock one day when I realized I didn't fit anymore. It was very disturbing. Today the idea of spinning round and round in a confined space crunched in a ball is disturbing...talk about awkward and dizzy. Also remember those bars on the playground that you could go sit on and spin round and round. I did that for hours in elementary school. I went back and did it once in jr high or high school. I clambered up on the bar and settled my self with a total lack of finesse on the bar went around once and was like "OW!!!!". And that was the end of that.

Kids are either weird or have less pain receptors in their bodies...maybe both

I guess I've always had the body of an old person, or I'm just a wimp. I never played on the bars (ouch), I've always hated running, and I thought that the kids who played soccer at recess were crazy. (I mean, what a waste of time. That's not fun!)
