What you think you can take back are the things that are going to haunt you

I started the list before I chose a number.

1.  Damnit, why is The Audition so good?  SO GOOD?  I wish I would have seen them live when I had the chance.  Hopefully another opportunity surfaces.
2.  It's funny how seemingly trivial decisions that I made years ago can have such an impact on my life today.
3.  My laptop finally works again!  Except now it thinks it is the year 2007.  Hmmm.  Makes me wonder what I was actually doing at 9:12am on March 22, 2007...
4.  I can't believe that everything contained within those village property lines is mine.  Even if they are slightly crooked.  That's ok, property lines.  This cat I know named Candy... Well, she's slightly crooked too, and she's freakin' awesome.
5.  I love ellipses so much...
6.  For the first time, things really feel like they're going to be ok.  Finally.  After years of worry.  Knock on freshly sealed hardwood floors.
7. For some reason, there are certain people that I feel some weird "anxiety" toward based on how I feel if I see their car (or one exactly like it) driving near me.  Seriously, I can name like 5.  At least.
8.  I'm coming, Miami.  Give me some years to pull it together.
9.  Red Hot Chili Peppers in May!
10.  I feel like ten is a good number, but I feel like I haven't really shared anything of substance so I should keep going.
11.  I bet if I did one of those "100 Things About Me" lists I could go on forever.  That's because I'm conceited and like to talk about myself.  It is what it is (or it's not what it's not?).
12.  I hate being around people who are pessimistic and constantly down.  Especially when they have so many things to be happy about. 
13.  My mother is an incredible woman.  She continues to surprise me, revealing piece by piece where almost every single sliver of my character comes from.
14.  I am lucky enough to have several amazing people in my life.
15.  Sometimes I wonder why certain people are even in my life anymore.  Whether it is part of some larger plan, a sign of holding on too tightly, or pure coincidence.
16.  I feel like this list is going nowhere.  Why is all of this so much more difficult than it used to be?
17.  I'm going to read this later and either think "That's awesome, I should have kept going" or I'm going to think "Wow, this is pointless".  I wish I knew to which future "me audience" to cater.

I guess it's 17.
