I can drink!
It's my 21st birthday today so now I can legally drink and go into clubs and bars. Yay! The latter part is most important but it's the freedom thing that's good too. Thanks muchly to talitha78 and clayangel for the virtual presents, they make me very, very happy :D
So far it's been a great day. I led up into my birthday last night watching Failure to Communicate (Doris! total coincidence, next on the list) and Need to Know and then right at 12 am watched Synergy (It Had To Be You) (and then two more times) which made me drunk with House/Wilson love. Watched Once More With Feeling in the morning, had a scrumpious breakfast at iHoP and am about to be off to try to get my House/Wilson TV Guide for my birthday. And then I have a birthday party with friends and a dinner where I'll order my first drink. Can't wait! There should be plenty of Office watching, of course.
Been kind of crazy year with lots of transitions but hopefully I'll get my life going in the right direction and will be back in California next year. And there's been a lot of great memories too in the last year.
I find it funny that when I was born there was a financial crisis going on and now here we are today but oh well. In more important news though (at least to me), it's National Coming Out Day and in California, Proposition 8 is on the ballot trying to take away gay marriage. From melina123,
There are powerful interests pouring millions of dollars to support this proposition, and there are recent polls showing we're losing. So if you can, please give some money. The minimum credit card donation is $5. If you can give that, or $10 or $20, please, please do. Or sign up to phonebank. You don't have to live in California to help.
Seriously. If we lose, we're pretty much done with this issue in California for a very long time to come -- this is a constitutional amendment and it will be very, very hard to change if it's passed. If we fail at this in California, it will only be more difficult in other states.
Think of Kevin and Scotty! Or any GLBT or slash pairing you support or you know, your friends and the people who would have their rights taken away by this proposition. This is so important and the best birthday gift I could get is if people would help support them and this proposition would get defeated.
Sorry to be negative on my birthday but it had to be said. Now back to my party! \o/
