the natural progression of life is. . . odd

I guess I don't take enough time to stop and look, so when I do. . . I'm shocked. My brother graduated from college, my sister is old enough to get into a bar, and my high school boyfriend is getting married for the second time next weekend. Life is literally an hourglass glued to a table. So here I stand, pondering the lackluster multi pronged fork in the road. . . and I have to just laugh. There's no "right" decision, because all roads lead to something, but not really any "somethings" that will make it easier for me to get up in the morning. Trying to procrastinate life is a lot harder as you get older, and it has kind of landed me flat on my ass where I am right now. Stuck.


If I had to do it over, not all over but definitely the greater part of ten years, I would move to Napa or Oregon and be a wine junkie. Or maybe join the peace corps and live in a third world country. Or more realistically, go to nursing school. I wish I could punch the eighteen year old girl that decided she wanted to major in Sports Medicine. Maybe I will still go to nursing school. Unfortunately, the government doesn't think that you should have any more money for a second undergrad if you already have one undergrad degree. Ha.


In the meantime I'm going do the logical thing and start playing the lottery. And drink a tecate cause tomorrow is cinco de mayo. Nothing like celebrating another nations day of drinking. America: we just like your country's holidays better than our own, plus if our holidays were celebrated internationally, you would all have to drink budweiser. ew. Maybe I'll get another excellent fake tattoo.
