Disturbing Trend

Jan 03, 2008 01:24


So, I've noticed that I've grown a little wilder in the past few months and have behaved very uncharacteristically.  "Party animal" may be too much of a stretch, but I've definitely gone out and deliberately gotten smashed a few times since the holiday season started.  I've also gotten in a couple of fights (I'm 2-0 with nary a scratch, but I was actually pretty lucky the second fight was broken up as the guy was 6'5" and over 250 lbs.) and have been flirting with girls almost ten years my junior.  Okay, so maybe dating younger girls is part of my repertoire, but this is extreme even for me.  There's actually a maturity gap wherein I'm the more responsible party.  Crazy, right?

I feel like I'm rebelling against my upcoming thirtieth birthday and acting like I'm still twenty, or, at least, how I think twenty-year olds behave because I was never this crazy when I was actually twenty.  I'm probably also rebelling against the very "vanilla" flavor of my current life.  I've always been more of a "raspberry sorbet" type of guy and need that extra level of "oomph" or what-have-you.  What I really need to do is stop delaying the purchase of a permanent residence (I've had enough saved up for awhile) and find a nice girl with whom to settle down.

Any volunteers?
