21

thought 16 years ago...

I will turn the big (finally able to purchase mind bending liquids on my own muaha) 2-1 in a little over a month. I have been writing an ever increasing, and increasingly ridiculous list of things I'd like for my birthday.

  1. A flask. Because I'm 21 and I want to at least LOOK like I'm carrying around dubious liquids. And so I can play an eternal drinking game, even if it's just kool aid.

  2. A bubble machine. Because I still wish I was a kid. Also bubbles make everyone happy. And making people happy makes me happy.

  3. Books. Lots of them. Including my favorite genre Fantasy, as well as sci-fi, regular fiction, and mayhaps a horrble romance just cuz.

  4. A cute guy in a kilt chained to a bed. Because I saw it on the cover of a book I was checking in and it seemed like a good idea.

  5. Pants. Because I need them.

  6. Pointy things. Because they're pretty.... and I might need them to keep my pet kilt-boy in line.

  7. Pride and Prejudice. Jane Austen kick... yarr..

  8. ZOMG PIRATES.

  9. Chocolate.

  10. More books?

  11. Time in a bottle so I actually get time to read the books.

  12. My own country.

13... umm... BOOGALOO!

EDIT: 14. PEPPERMINT SHNAPPS!!! mmmm.... and maybe some rum. You know... for rum cake... shifty eyes

That's a pretty good list.

I keep forgetting things too... like a victioria's secret gift card so I can better show off the girls, and mayhaps some cough "panties" or whatnot.

Also. Duct tape. Lots and lots of it.

And more books, i have an ever increasing list of things to read.

A date. I'd really just like to run into someone the night before my birthday, go out to a bar or someplace, and get my first drink and a date all in one fell swoop.

LLAMAS.

Announce to bartenders that it's your 21st birthday, and they'll probably tell everybody else, and that'll probably lead to guys buying you drinks and possibly talking to you. Lots of probablys and possiblys there. And even still, there's a 50/50 chance that whomever you get attention from will be a creepy bar dude, trawling for some action. Just keep your defenses up and don't take risks after you've been drinking. These random, not-thought-out, early-morning comments brought to you by Black Box.

I won't be going home with any skeezy bar people for several reasons.

  1. I have no car and will have to be picked up by someone I know anyway.
  2. I'm awkward enough that I might deter even the most determined of skeezys.
  3. I know for a fact that I can't let my guard down even when I'm drunk. (Toga party escapades.)

But it will still be interesting. If I can even get to a bar on my birthday. Hmm... maybe I should add a car to my list of wants. I'd really like a mustang, but with gas so expensive (and me so cheap) I'd probably prefer a hybrid. We'll see.

Today I decided there were things I really wanted more than what I listed... if I were being honest with myself that is.

  1. a clue what I'm going to do with the rest of my life
  2. love
  3. just to spend time with my friends

What I really got today was

  1. Pants 2) an IOU 3) a Johnny Depp Tripple feature 4) a book 5) Loneliness 6) A crippling blow to my self esteem 7) a Daquiri at Olive garden 8) fleeting greetings from friends via facebook 9) A mad sense of sexual frustration that for some reason have centered around people I don't even have that much contact with 10) overstimulation at the mall from the noise and crowds that put me on edge and made me want to run screaming 11) the reinforcement of the belief that I just don't fit in 12) An angry bear-monster shirt

Ups and downs...

... I forgot to make a wish on my candles this year... sigh
