1. Establishing a firm time to leave the club or party because I need X numbers of hours of sleep to be fully functional.

2. Addressing my college students as "Young Man/Woman"

3. Gossiping with my momma, grandmothers and aunties. I can remember when I was a pre-teen trying to listen to grown folks conversation by being quiet so they wouldn't notice they were talk siht about Mrs. Turner's bad a$$ kids :p

4. Telling the neighbor's kids to stay off my patio and away from my plants. Ok, it's more like yelling like my momma used to do.

5. Planning the days I can imbibe (and recover).
