well that was fun! :>
14 years ago
yesterday was nice! a very mellow 30th.
the day started out busting open sokki's gift to me and discovering 20$ worth of starbucks coffee money and one of those cool draw-your-own-cup cups! i have to decide what i want to do with it, other than fill it with coffee forever.
me & alf then went out to grab breakfast at dunkin d and run some errands. my dad, sorta-stepmom and sorta-stepsister called to sing happy bday while were were waiting for coffee at dunkin. for those just joining this program already in progress, my sorta-stepsister is 19 and has downs syndrome. and wow did she sing. it was uh.
well.
it was heartfelt, is what it was. so i told her it was beautiful :>c
then we just did boring stuff like get food. we swung by a generic art store (a michaels i think) and i picked up some new bristol paper, micron pens and a much needed kneaded eraser. my b-day gift to myself i guess, unless you count the novelization of ET i bought on amazon the night before for 5$.
then we just kinda came home and i did the comic and drew for myself while alf played silent hill 2. we had gyouza for dinner and coffee + brownies for dessert. good stuff.
oh :O! and i found a weird kiddie bath toy by crayola that i had to buy for my friend zar. zar collects the pokemon parasect and although this thing is supposed to be a crab (i guess) it really, REALLY looks like a parasect. you can kinda see it up top here.
but yeah, that was my birthday! not to add a downnote to this or anything but i honestly, for real, never thought i'd live this long. i dunno why! i just always figured i'd be dead before i was 28, let alone 30. so it's like a wide open horizon of possibilities for me from here :O amazing how missing your perceived appointed time of death gives you a lasting optomistic outlook.
to 30 more, yeaaaaaah!

Going through some that "lol i wont live that long" thing myself.
Thinking more than a year in advance to me often strikes me as outrageously hopeful, which is odd because I really manage my risks REALLY well and don't have much going against me I'd say.
i think part of that though is because the people who try to pre-plan their entire lives seem so miserable to me. like they feel tied to this plan to have a 'good' life and leave no room for improvisation or change.
"You have always told me you'd not live past 25
I say stay long enough to repay all who cause strife"
Or something like that! Congrats and exceeding your expectations and having a good b-day! :D
Those are probably the best ones to have when you get along in the years.

Compared Starbucks Extra-Charred Bean brew, Dunkin coffee sparkles and dances. I got Dunkin in my fridge as I write this.
Shoot for the stars.
Then he added, "You'll probably live to 100 if your mouth doesn't get you killed first."

i haven't been to a doctor in a while (mostly cause i know they'll want bloodwork and i'm terrified of needles) but i think last time word was i was doing pretty good except for being underweight (a lifelong issue) and my bloodpressure was p. low but in a good way
and parasect is one of the more mewtasticfull looking pokemon |3 (apart from mew that is....)
