Are there any other goofballs out there?Are there any other goofballs out there?
I'm closing in on 62, but I'll admit it, I'm a goofball!
I never grew up!
Anybody else in the same boat?

Anniemetalwoman! I don't take myself very serious, but it seems like most of the people around me of similar age have somehow lost their senses of humor.
I don't have any children and thus no grandchildren.....do you suppose that's what kept me as a virtual teenager?

Being a goofball is what keeps me young(ish) and san(ish??). If I took myself and my life seriously, I would have been put away a long time ago, haha.

You're darn tootin' we're all goofballs, and proud as the dickens. If I sat down and wrote a Journal titled "Three Steps To An Independent Irritable and Irregular Colon", I'd slit my throat!

Ah, howsed, a kindred spirit!
I haven't been able to put my humorous take on things to work in the work place recently, as my office was closed up last December. Now I don't know if I'm retired, or just unemployed.
I live in a retirement oriented area....what I'm finding is that most of the retirees here don't get my humor at all. I guess I have a little better luck with 40 to 60 set. Those under 40 think I should be locked up! LOL!

I'm surprised that you haven't received more responses. Actually I find that lately I must keep my "goofballness" in check at work. We have many (ahem) younger managers, and I am the first to admit they are great, but they do not get my humor, do not appreciate my humor. Could it possibly be an age difference? (sarcasm) Frankly, I don't know. But hard as I try, I think I'll always be a little irreverent.
