People are always asking me, " when you gonna stop and settle down?" or "Don't you ever sleep?" Of course I'm always thinking this as a retort, "they'll be plenty of time to rest when I'm dead.", but I rarely say that. My life in a nutshell, right now, is like one of my favorite Groucho quotes. He said this as Captain Spalding in the movie Animal Crackers.

'HELLO, I MUST BE GOING. I CAN NOT STAY, I'VE COME TO SAY I MUST BE GOING.
I'M GLAD I CAME, BUT JUST THE SAME, I MUST BE GOING... I'LL STAY A WEEK OR TWO,
I'LL STAY THE SUMMER THROUGH, BUT I AM TELLING YOU, I MUST BE GOING."

I've always wanted to be more like Mr. Rogers, but find I'm exactly like Mr. McFeely... "Speedy Delivery"

Does anyone else feel like 'there's so much to do, in so little time?'

Does anyone out there have a quote or a song that best describes your life right now?

The difficulty I have with slowing down, is I don't wanna grow up. For crying out loud I'm a professional sports mascot. I get paid to be a kid. The song that best describes me, without a doubt, as I rapidly approach my mid-30's is by one of my favorites, JIMMY BUFFETT, and his song I'M GROWING OLDER, BUT NOT UP. ( it's also got baseball references in it, which makes it even better)

For all those who dont feel as old as they are and never will.....

I rounded first never thought of the worst
As I studied the shortstops position
Crack went my leg like the shell of an egg
Someone call a decent physician
Im no pete rose, I cant pretend
Though my mind is quite flexible, these brittle bones dont bend

Chorus:
Im growing older but not up
My metabolic rate is pleasantly stuck
Let those winds of time blow over my head
Id rather die while Im living than live while Im dead

Sometimes I see me as old manatee
Headin south as the waters grow colder
Tries to steer clear of the hum-drum so near
It cuts prop scars deep in his shoulder
But thats how it goes (thats how it goes), right to the end
Though his bodys quite flexible, that barnacle brain dont bend

Chorus:
Im growing older but not up
My metabolic rate is pleasantly stuck
Let those winds of time blow over my head
I'd rather die while Im livin than live while Im dead

Now dont get me wrong
This is not a sad song
Just events that I have happened to witness
And time takes its toll as we head for the poll
And no one dies from physical fitness
So what the hell, well take it right to the end
As the days grow more complicated the nightlife still wins

SO, WHAT'S YOUR SONG? WHAT'S YOUR QUOTE? DO YOU HAVE A BOOK, MOVIE OR TV SHOW THAT REPRESENTS OR RESEMBLES YOU?
