Post Adult

 Nikisha-next-door- who is eleven- says she thinks old people are cute (meaning us).  We're not quite adult to her.  Post-adult perhaps. This evening she called me to the garden wall to show me a big water gun we'd been talking about earlier- and (having instructed me in its use)  let me shoot it.

Well, she obviously still thinks you can play like a child.

I don't have the energy I once had, but otherwise....

That is the fate of all of us 50+ folks.

Fun! Water fun! These new guns are so much better than our old water pistols used to be. Now one can really soak an opponent. Almost as much fun as water balloon bombs descending from above!

Yes, the water pistols of our youth were feeble things by comparison.
