I turned 25 years old yesterday. Why oh why couldn’t I stay 24? Hell, I still feel like I’m 22. I don’t like leaving my early-twenties. I don’t feel ready, or dare I say mature enough for this huge step.
I know: It’s just another day, another year, another birthday. Can’t fight it (like city hall). But I don’t think this is the year I’m going to bitch about getting older. Truth is, the future is completely uncertain, and that is truly exciting. Here’s to my mid-twenties - may they bring great entrepreneurial riches and an unparalleled view of the world!
My birthday was pretty damn good. I started it off early with a run by town lake, followed by some austin bullshit on South Congress. I think I’m putting a moratorium on SoCo; my neck of the woods is far cooler and less congested. Oh, and Spider House has this sign making fun of Starbucks’ Caramel Macchiato, when Spider House’s own macchiato sucks ass. JP’s is the only place in Austin to have a macchiato: TRUTH.
Thanks to Tim for the Shure E2c Sound Isolating Headphones. The iPod has suddenly sprung to new life.
Turns out: I’m a bowler. I scored a 132 at Highland Lanes, beating Tim, Mary, and Mike in our second game.
I am a bowler!
Tim took me to a lovely dinner at Z. Tejas on West 6th - it rules, check it out. And make sure you get a seat outside. The wait is worth the superior ambiance.
