Congratulations! Once lost, immaturity is gone for ever. Mature Women of the World, Sunny (15) and Mija (22), counsel me on my immaturity, "Jesus, Phil, one day you're going to do yr 'Happy Dance' and fall down dead!" but at least I, we, won't die of boredom! Good old Flaubert nailed it:I just turned 39 recently, but I am very immature
"C'est l'Ennui! -- l'oeil charge d'un pleur involuntaire,
Il reve d'echafauds en fumant son houka."
Incidentally, "houka" was translated by some Mature American (Howard) as "pipe!"
