I did some body building and intentionally gained muscle. It had never been an interest of mine, so I read up on it a little and learned about things like creating a calorie surplus, getting the nutrition you need to support muscle growth, and taking days off

I don't look super muscular, but I now have more muscle than a young teenager would have (in most cases - I'm sure there are exceptions). So people now think I'm an adult!

Glad I finally made it to adulthood. I'm 47

So this isn't me, and there's a slight immorality to it...but barely.

My youngest daughter is 19. About a month ago, it was time for the county fair, which she goes to every year with friends. This year, it was her, her boyfriend and his twin brother, and another of her friends from high school (I'm not sure if anyone else was included, but it's possible).

At the fair, kids 13 and under get in free.

My daughter and her friend got in free... (Which is why I mentioned the ethics. Not that I judge...I think it's hilarious!)

She always rolls her eyes when I say she looks like she's 12 most of the time. But apparently I'm not the only one who thinks that!
