So. Internet's back. Huzzah. I'd like to say that I wrote something to post while it was down, but I'm told that lying is bad for the soul. (But I've heard the same thing said of Calculus, and with only a hint of irony, so we'll see which one gets to me first.)
I have a birthday coming up here soon. It's funny to think that this is one of the last 'milestones' I'll be hitting any time soon. (I somehow don't think I'll be celebrating the quarter-of-a-century milestone with nearly as much enthusiasm as I have now.) And even though it's not actually my birthday for a few more days, I think I've already gone through the majority of the festivities. Thank goodness. I've never been one to enjoy random, meaningless gifts given to commemorate the fact that I've managed to survive for so many years. Honestly, my parents probably deserve to be gifted more than I do--they're the ones who've let me live!
The one thing I do like is having an excuse to have friends come around. Summer birthdays suck when you're still in grade school, because everyone's always out of town, and not everyone lives near enough to arrange a ride. The last couple of years, though, have been a lot better. My social circle is smaller than it was, but the friends are of a better quality. And they all tend to have their own cars, or their own means of getting here, which is less for me to worry about. Under such conditions, even I don't mind playing hostess.
That being said, I plan to spend my weekend celebrating the anniversary of my emancipation from my mother's womb, and the fact that I haven't driven my parents to murder me [yet], and the fact that I am legally permitted to purchase and consume alcoholic concoctions. I wouldn't expect another post until later next week (unless I happen to "drunk post." I've already made plans to have my phone confiscated, but I've only just thought about the computer...).
I wish you all good things, until next time. <3
