BioI like to think that one day, I'll remember my twenties as a drawn out nervous breakdown from which I have long since recovered. I'll laugh at the way I cried at commercials and love songs and trees. My drinking binges and botched relationships will amuse me, and when I muse over them I'll allow myself a soft chuckle because I know soooo much better now. The way I lived right at the poverty line despite having a perfectly decent education will seem quaint and maybe even a little adventurous, like how it comes off in movies about hopelessly hip, young, crazy, poor people.
Yes, in the glorified, slightly delusional memories I plan to have of my youth, I will be that hip, young, crazy, poor person.
Unfortunately, until that unspecified, far off day sometime in the distant future...until then, I'm not doing so hot. And just between you and me, I'm starting to worry that this "day" I have been talking about just ain't coming. That maybe I'll just be a washed up, old, crazy, poor person. And those movies? They're just depressing...
Feel free to add me but first understand that I am not a particularly positive person, nor do I aspire to be one. If you're on board with that, I am sure we'll get along just fine (assuming you can at least kinda sorta spell, and have interesting things to say every now and then.)
