10 Things I wish I wasn't too old to do anymore

    1. Wear sneaks that look like this:

I'd own a red pair, too.
   
     2.   Roller skate.  I used to be a whiz-bang roller skater (ask my kids) but I'm afraid to try anymore because if some yahoo skater-dude ran into me and knocked me over and broke something everybody would tsk, "What was she doing roller skating at her age?"

      3.  Learn how to ice-skate.  See above.

      4.  Tell dirty jokes.
    
      5.  Send inappropriate birthday cards. *

    6. Stand on a chair and hang curtains. 
Last time I tried I fell off the chair and broke a rib.  But I only got one pair of the curtains hung so now what am I supposed to do?

        7.  Try stand-up comedy.

        8.  Eat whatever I want, whenever I want and as much as I want without getting heartburn, a gall bladder attack, or caring about putting on poundage.

Back when I was all about that bass.**


  9.  Sing "I'm So Fancy" with a karaoke machine.
  
 10.  Tell my children how to live their lives.*

Here is my response to your list:
1. - Camie T wears these kinds of sneaks.
2,3 - Probably a wise decision, but you could always get extra padding for knees, etc if you wanted to give it a try
4,5 - IMO you are never too old for these activities, and honestly I think they become more enjoyable with age
6 - good idea
7 - go for it, I've always wanted to try this too
8 - I still haven't accepted this for myself and it shows
9 - don't know the song
10 - I think this is a right that you get to keep for the rest of your life once you've experienced the pain of childbirth

Well, then, that's a good enough reason not to wear those sneaks. You should listen to "I'm so Fancy" and "All about that bass" if you haven't yet heard them.
