What's fun about being in school is that I can guarantee my life will be drastically different five years from now. However, I'm hoping it's also drastically different from five years ago.
I like pancakes 'cause they're stackable. Ooo, and waffles 'cause you can put things in the little holes if you wanted to.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?
Also, in 5 years I'll be 38. Ugh.
I'm with Calli. I'm 38 and it's been a pretty great year thus far.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
you feel guilt for not having stuff you don't even want and you won't get into therapy?
mmm ok.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I am no age. It doesn't matter. Somehow I separate it from all the time the psycho part of my head thinks I've wasted.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
I find my feeling about my age differs with where I am in my life. The last couple of years have been difficult in several ways, and I had times where I felt old. This year is off to a much better start and the process of turning 50 no longer feels bad or final and I feel younger. So go figure.

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.
OK, fly-by-ing here to share a strip from Questionable Content (OMG so horribly addictive) because of the Buffistas-ness of it all: [link] Although it strikes me as too on-the-money not to have been linked to from here in the past.
It's like the pictorial representation of the genesis of AIFG!

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
I've been feeling 30 since I was about 25. I keep having to remind myself that I've got a few years to go because I don't feel like I'm still in my twenties.

It's like being lightly OCD--it doesn't break me in any way. And it's not guilt. It's...hmm, where are my words? It's a conflict between the driven part of me, which has no traction or resources, and the laid back, let's-see-what-unfolds part of me.
Suppose I did fix that and was therefore perfect. It wouldn't be polite. I keep a flaw or three around to help other people be more comfortable around me.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Oh my. I could barely keep from cracking up....
