"I'm on a journey. It started 19 years 51 weeks, 6 days, 2 hours, 7 minutes and 14, 15, 16 seconds ago. And in this time I've come too far, too far to listen to critics too far to consider defeat to far to be less than great... 25, 26, 27, 28... The knocks in my journey mapped out by my scars they're both story and proof of how I reach for the stars, my hands in the air, my feet on the floor... 42, 43, 44... I'm on a journey and it won't stop until do...49..."
Two decades past and I still don't feel any different from my last ten birthdays, maybe I'm doing something wrong haha. I always like to think back on all the shit I've done in the past whenever my birthday rolls around so I guess I'll share some thoughts.
At the same time though I feel more worldly than a lot of other people I know. I've been to more countries than some have states or even cities in the few years I've been alive. I've done things like dance at the summer solstice at Stonehenge or eating seafood right where it was caught on the Mediterranean. Somehow I always manage to draw the right cards when it comes to things like that.
Still, there's a lot of things I haven't done either that I'd like to do. I guess the most realistic one would be getting goddamned laid. I get so caught up in trying to do shit like skydiving, snorkeling reefs, traveling, and all these other things that I want to do simply because other people get the chance that I don't think I've ever really ever made time for romance or even a one night stand. Probably need to make that shit happen quick before it's way too late.
Besides that I still have my dreams and goals. The biggest one would be becoming President of the United States. As much as fucking crap job it is, I want to do it, if only because I think I could do it better. If that's not a good enough reason to do something than fuck me. But I guess everything will unfold as I go along. Until then I'll just keep kicking back and enjoying work, friends, family, and habits. I don't love my job but I love what it stands for and that'll be enough for me for a while. I butt heads with my family and friends but I don't think I could leave anyone hanging in my outer circle for more than a week or two. As for my habits, they're changing all the time. I've been off smoking for almost a month now, don't think I'll ever quit drinking, and I've been picking up card tricks here and there to pass the time when I'm not in the gym or at the bar.
That's all I really got for this cake day blog. Hopefully I'll have more for this post next year.
