But today is basically The Perfect Day, so I figure I must post.
Today is the first day of Fall, which is my favorite. It is also Hobbit Day, which is also my favorite. It is also International Curly Hair Day, which is also my favorite. How lovely is that?
...it also happens to be my 20th birthday, which is all kinds of weird. I've been alive for a score. I am in my third decade of life. I'm a twenty-something, ouch.
So how about a fun game of Never Have I Ever In Twenty Years? Okay. Never have I ever:
- Watched Star Wars
- Eaten and enjoyed pickles
- Grown my hair past my waist
- Had a whole conversation with someone in a language besides English
- Done anything actually physically risky
- ...or even run a mile
- Drunk more than half a sip of anything alcoholic
- Driven somewhere out of town by myself
- Traveled abroad without 'grown ups'
- Read War and Peace
- Slept under the stars
- Played a convincing chord on a guitar
- Been to Boston (in the fall or otherwise)
These are all things that I mean to change sometime in the next decade of my life. We'll see. A couple are a stretch, but I think I can probably manage most of them. Most doubtful? Pickles. Definitely the pickles.
God has blessed me a lot, like massively, these twenty years. I'm happy with them. Now I figure it's time for me to be, like, an actual adult. We'll see how that goes.
