Is This Thing On?

Is it me or did this year go by faster than the bills that come out of your account on payday? I can vividly remember saying “Happy New Year!”, and it’ll be November in a few short days. Usually I just drop in to give some encouragement, but today is all about honesty.

I’m not sure what the heck is going on.

I turned 28 a little under four months ago, and for some reason it seems like time is moving faster than ever. At one point my goal was to be on someone’s “Top 30 under 30 list”, and since I don’t think they make lists for 35 year-olds, the next list of the sort I’ll be able to make is 40. Yuck.

I have a head full of ideas and not enough capital to execute them (or maybe not enough time or energy, or all 3). If someone asked me “What do you want to do?” right now, I' wouldn’t know how to give an answer, because I want to do everything. My mind is pretty much always running at top processing speed, trying to figure out the next move. I’m not going to give any advice because I’m probably not going to adhere to whatever I type here. However, if this sounds like you, you aren’t alone. If this year has taught me anything, it’s that everyone is just trying to figure it out, and even when we have one thing nailed down, we’ll never stop trying to figure it out. I’m just trying to enjoy the journey along the way. (Sort of).

With all this uncertainty, there are however, a few stable things in my life:

  • My extreme dislike for candy corn. It’s flavored wax.

  • My ever bigger dislike of people who don’t use turn signals.

  • My disgust of people who eat chitterlings. The fact that you have to clean it so thoroughly to get the waste out should tell you that it’s not meant to be eaten…

  • My quest to get everyone to adhere to basic hygiene. Please.

  • My hatred for Nissan Cube.

The good news is that one thing is certain: Return of the Mack is the best song ever created.

You got this. We got this.

Love always,
