Inn that in my heart i am wild and nutty but outside i act normal?

Inside I feel like i am wild and crazy. On the inside I want to dress in womens' clothing, or put on a fur suit or sprout wings and fly or go dancing or fly a space ship and travel across the universe or run a club for odd souls like me. On the outside I am just a programmer with a wife and three kids. I go to work every day and stay out of trouble. I try to keep my speed down to protect myself and others. I earn a buck and feed my kids.
Is it normal to feel this way while acting that way? The kid in me still wants to chase monsters while the adult in me sais steady now, only 20 more years till you can take the big nap.

Is It Normal?

  • My dad always says "If I were a younger man, I would do become a lawyer/fly planes in Alaska/etc.", and it breaks my heart every time because the idea that he'll die with regrets is almost unbearable.

    So start wearing your wife's clothes if you want; just don't get stains on them or stretch them out. Better yet, buy your own. Take tango lessons. Get a mohawk. Go for a ride on that zero gravity plane. Play in a refrigerator box for an afternoon. You have the potential to be the coolest/most embarrassing/most memorable dad ever. Let the wild rumpus begin.

  • You sir have a wild imagination, embrace it, write it down and make millions, o and dedicate your first book to me, haha! I am not kidding, you have a wild imagination and that is awesome, some people have no imagination and that is just sad. You are normal, you just have a wild imagination. Just dont start wearing your wives clothes. O and you also might be really bored with routine so your imagination is what keeps you going, If all I had was a wife and a programming job I think that I would want to be doing or thinking of something else too.
