I was supposed to turn 38 right after the new millennium, but I should look at the bright side that I'm not almost 50 this year, I guess. Where do the years go?

Anyway, considering I completely missed out on Y2K and all that, what did everyone else do to celebrate the year 2000? Or the closest "big" new year for everyone who either doesn't

You should've been 38 in 2000? Dude, I would only have been about 16. Weird.

[notahandbag]

...Holy shit seriously? Ugh, I hate all you guys, you make me feel really old.

[det_goofball]

Yep, I was born in '84. Whih makes you... '62, right? And come on, don't be like that, you're not actually that old!

[notahandbag]

Yup. I guess considering there's eleven years of my life that just... Don't exist, I should start saying I was born in '73, huh? And I might not actually be that old, but after this last year, I sure as hell feel like I should be on my death bed by now.

[det_goofball]

Yeah, or people will start thinking you look pretty damn good for nearly 50. And hey, this year will probably be better? Or something reassuring to that effect, I dunno.

[notahandbag]

...Thanks, I appreciate you trying. And Stein's friends are suspicious enough about me already without me making it seem like I'm Dorian Gray.

[det_goofball]

Any time! Maybe you could tell them you've found the elixir of youth or something awesome like that?

[notahandbag]

Well, it's close enough to the truth. Just like everything else I tell these people...

[det_goofball]

You probably ought to start keeping a list of the stuff you're telling them so you don't mess up. Trust me.

[notahandbag]

Speaking from experience, I'm guessing.

[det_goofball]

Yeah, uhhhh, pretty much? Still good advice!

[notahandbag]

True enough. I don't disagree with you.

[det_goofball]

Yep, since I'm the expert in subterfuge and all.

[notahandbag]

The only part where I know I really start fucking up is if this zombie guy comes and talks to me. I keep wanting to ask him if I could study him, but... Alas that might be awkward.

[det_goofball]

...Yeah, uh, don't do that, I don't think that'd end well for anyone involved.

Also, the zombie talks?

[notahandbag]

Not in the slightest.

Yes, he does. His name's Sid, and he's the one Stein made, so I guess he got to keep his intellect in tact.
