Times were good. I had a Mongoose BMX bike with yellow spokes, a rat tail AND a mullet, Optimus Prime AND ShockWave, a kick ass collection of Sectaurs, and my girlfriend kissed me on the lips once at the kissing tree.
Apparently times have changed. Now my idea of a good time is a banana cognac at the sizzler and a good power nap.
I think I’m having a midlife crisis today; wishing I was about 10 years younger, 20 pounds lighter, and 50 million richer. SEO and kicking ass marketing in competitive verticles just seems boring right this minute, which is way out of character for me. How does one retain that awesome youthful feeling that you are alive without drinking beer bongs or hitting it hard at the casino? Any ideas?

WITHOUT drinking beer bongs or hitting it hard at the casino?
See, that’s an old man’s way of asking how to have fun.
Instead, ask, what can I do to my body, liver and hydration level tonight to maximize the pain I will feel when I wake up tomorrow? The answer will solve multiple problems. 1) you will have fun tonight, and 2) you will appreciate boring old SEO again on monday.

Try going for an extended hike or trip in nature. Being away from the mess of the internet, finances, and personal responsibility and put into an environment where your main concerns are food/shelter are your primary concern melt away the stress.

I maintain my youth by dating a hot, intelligent guy 13 years my senior. If you’re lucky maybe you could find the right older man for you, too. I heard David Temple really wanted a piece of you… Good luck!

Run your own business. Nothing gives you the kick in the gut low and super skyscraper highs as the rush of piloting your own ship.

Ya see I had this problem since I turned about 25 (Im 35 now). Me and a friend were sitting around on a thursday nite and was wondering how things got so boring in our lives do fast. bla bla bla So we invented “Thursday Night Missions”
Watch a Beastie Boys video and go down to the local Salvation Army and find a kick ass uniform for the night.
See what you’ll be doing is dressing up unlike yourself and taking on a new persona. Sometimes my name is Tito and others times is Hank. Either way we engage our Thursday Night Missions by jumping in a friends ol Ford Galaxy 500 and put a NWA tape in and ride around with the windows down.
We may pull into a self serve car wash and practice some funky dance moves while people wash their cars. SOmetimes we go down to the bowling alley in Lowell MA and take a game of Jenga and sit there a few hours drinking $1 drafts and playing Jenga while swearing in foreign languages(pre-made cheat sheets in our pockets).
Come on Hooley. Get a little creative why dontcha. If you can pull of a riding dirty video in Vegas you can do the same in your home town.
Here a suggesiton: Find a tux that just barely fits ya and go down to the local convenience store and hang outside. When people go in ask them which way to Vegas and say you were supposed to get married this morning but got kicked off the bus heading there for being a drunkin bastard and lost your way.
You’ll get the best advice from people on how to live your life and what they did when they were married.
ok Im drunk now and time for me to go pee the bed. nite nite
