Caught In The Whirlwind
And A Happy Birthday To Me I Suppose
I guess it should be noted that today is my birthday. I’m 23. Yay.
Now that that’s out of the way..the mythical birthday has lost it’s effect on me. When you’re young (or at least when I was young anyway, not sure about anybody else), it was a time of great anticipation, one of the times in your life where you got a feeling of “growing up” in a concrete measurable form. Of course, you didn’t really think of it like that usually
Now it’s just like any other day. It’s not like I’ve got much to look forward to, like the series of big birthdays in the teens, at least in New York, 16 for driving, 18 for voting and being considered an adult in the eyes of the law (and cigarettes if you’re so inclined…I’d like to keep my lungs fully functional thank you!), 21 for the adult beverages. After that, what’s next? Mid 60s for retirement?
Yup, just another day.
Don’t mind me…I might be a little down because I’ve got class all night tonight. Perhaps I can get out of some of it though, most of it is just lab time.
