In Which I Realize I Am Getting Old, And You Do Too.
Posts
I haven't had many wedding invitations, but boyhowdy are people from my high school class (and those right around it) popping out babies. Even people I never expected to have kids by 25 have them.
There's nothing wrong with having a kid at 23-26, but I think about myself in that role and I am not ready for it yet. I think I could manage, if I had to, but I don't want to be managing.
I have more money, I have no debt.
Life keeps getting more awesome as I get older.
If i run into something I liked a long time ago, I think, `Hey, that's a cool thing I remember.' and then I go back to having money and loving life.
A vague sense of dissatisfaction building to an impending midlife crisis.
I'm one of the last members of an old and noble line
what am I going to do with two of these?

One thing I get to look forward to in my 30s: My student loans will finally be paid off shortly after my 32rd birthday. I will be debt free and oh man I'm getting giddy just thinking about it.
This is my favorite part
I own both my cars and (knock on wood) they should have another 50k miles in them
I have no student debt
And my girlfriend should have hers paid off in like a year
we will have, at least for a short while before we go for a house, literally 0 debt
Happy Birthday on the appropriate day!
And I need to double check this, but I think I might be the only person in my high school graduating class not married and/or with kids.
Now it's moving on to college friends where it's a wedding invite per month I'd say.
I've had to burst this bubble for a couple different friends after their respective divorces now.
And that is my old man rant for the day.
Woops. Thought you were 52
That's the number of centuries my hair has roamed the earth, living its endless, mindless, parasitical existence.
I used to party all the time but now it's like
"Oh man, it's almost 11 I should go home"
And then I do
Uh-oh I accidentally deleted my signature. Uh-oh!!
Now, it's, `Fuck yes gonna sleep in.... till 7am baby!'
I don't do that
I really look at the other things I could be doing right now
Like folding origami fish or building one of the many lego sets that sit unbuilt around me
But I am looking at stuff online as I fall asleep
ya, that'd be pretty useful
Our 10 year reunion came up and the administration there was getting in contact with students from my year for a "Where are they now" type of thing.
They contacted my mom, who contacted me. I told her to tell them I died, and she did. She got a letter of condolences signed by some of my old teachers and apparently there is a tiny black ribbon on my photo on one of those big 'graduating class' type photos they have in the halls.
Uh-oh I accidentally deleted my signature. Uh-oh!!
I'm going to do that.
Uh-oh I accidentally deleted my signature. Uh-oh!!
Even weekends offer no succor
omg
You should turn up at the reunion dressed as a ghost

that shit was for the birds
But failing that, I'm much happier on this side of things
I walked to the shops yesterday morning to buy stuff for breakfast. Five years ago, if I had nothing for breakfast I'd go to McDonald's
There is general consensus among me and my wife that I may have a sleep disorder. Woohoo.
and to start transition BEFORE puberty
This is the one part I kind of enjoy, because my playlist at work just messes with people,
90's gutter punk into Florence and the machine into Garth Brooks into 60's protest songs into some Electronica into some Tool or Rage maybe, etc.
Shuffle forever!
1995 me would be terrified to know what 2014 me was. That said, I'm not altogether miserable about 2014 me (this week).
