I'm not quite ready for bed yet tonight, and I've been killing time by reading my old Deadjournal entries from high school. When the "current music" thing contains a song I still have on my computer, I listen to it. Aside from the obligatory weird nostalgia, this is making me realize that my life has been consistently getting better and better for many years now - primarily just in terms of my own attitude. It's cool to see the proof of that improvement, written down unwittingly by my former self. But it's also kind of foreboding, because at some point, life has to STOP getting better. I don't look forward to the plateau... The point which, in retrospect, will be seen like, "Yeah, so that was the best my life ever got. Nothing since then has ever been quite as cool."
