Twenty Fiver Fall Guy

Well, I haven't had too much time to think about it, but I turned 25 today. I think I'll take a sabbath and write out some thoughts and reflections of this past year and a little midterm review for myself. I think I've shared a bit with some folks but I've put forth some pretty big commitments ( I think ) for my 20s. I'm forecasting content again. Again. Again. So that's that. I felt a bit anxious about 25er. It has been said by another Fall baby (and I feel the same): Fall birthdays are kind of strange because fall is usually a season of change and newness (following school cycles) and I've found that I either am just getting to know people or they're just starting to get to know me, so any birthday wishes are weak and kind of introductory or just unkown. So if I'm around next year, it'll be better.

I'm grateful for those acknowledgements that were there... some old friends/family and some new ones. The responses were equally extreme in relationship to me. New friends are really new and old friends (a lot of them) are fading away (less responses).

I'm the Fall Guy.

As for my last post, I feel a bit hypocritical. I made an APB for folks to register but it turns out that I won't be registered this time around. I got it all ready: signed - sealed -stamped. Put it in my hand in the morning but I went straight to work instead of the Post Office because I was running late. Then I reminded myself to do it between commuting to my other job, but I was rushing so I forgot. I realized I forgot at 7:00 dinner. I had the sinking-in-the-stomach I-missed-it feeling. Oh well, I think Kerry has a good chance to win California anyway, so I miss out on voicing for the propositions. Yeah, Kerry's my man, even though I'm not all too sure about his execution of plans after talking to Avery. Who knows, I just want some change.

Dubya's done (enough).

Josh (my apartmentmate) suggested getting ahold of my San Diego mail. 8520 Costa Verde Blvd. #3226/San Diego CA/ 92122. I still remember that address. Good Times. Next time I'll do it right.
