Let no-one tell you that reaching middle age means saying goodbye to excitement.

You just have to be prepared to grab your kicks when they come along.

Why, only today, I had a cup of real darjeeling tea, brewed in a pot. Later on, riding the wave of caffeine, I ran up 3 flights of stairs, two at a time.

A whole day's worth of kicks for about 5 cents. What a fortunate creature I am!
