Where I've Been

 

 

I have been in many places, but I've never been in Cahoots.
Apparently, you can't go alone. You have to be in Cahoots with
someone.


I've also never been in Cognito. I hear no one recognizes you there.
I have, however, been in Sane. They don't have an airport; you have to
be driven there. I have made several trips there, thanks to my
friends, family and work.


I would like to go to Conclusions, but you have to jump, and I'm not
too much on physical activity anymore.


I have also been in Doubt. That is a sad place to go, and I try not to
visit there too often.


I've been in Flexible, but only when it was very important to stand
firm.


Sometimes I'm in Capable, and I go there more often as I'm getting
older.


One of my favorite places to be is in Suspense! It really gets the
adrenalin flowing and pumps up the old heart! At my age I need all the
stimuli I can get!
