So it's my birthday today...one more year that I've managed to stay alive with all limbs intact (watch, I go out and lose a hand today). I feel like I should look back on my 26 years and rate how I'm doing so far, or at least where I am at in regards to where I think I should be.
I still haven't lived overseas, skydived, or met the Dave Matthews Band - but as I get older, (naturally) the level of importance of these things begins to change. New goals start appearing...the whole marriage thing, the kids, the house. Do I need to fit those things in? Is it time that I start fitting those things in? I'm assuming that things will fall into place naturally and I don't need to make them much of a goal, at least in the sense that I should be actively working to accomplish them. I have a great apartment, a wonderful boyfriend, a very good job, and a very good car (still!!). I consider myself very lucky and am not really impatient for any of them. I'm hoping that I'll get one of those cosmic 'the time is right' feelings and just go for it when that occurs, and leave it up to fate.
I'm really going to have to work on that meeting Dave Matthews thing though. If fate hasn't stepped in for 11 years, it just might be time to get off my arse and start doing some stalking. Got any pointers?
