27 years
April 03, 2006Well, it's here.
My birthday.
I am 27 years old.
Sunday wasn't a very good day for me. The day before a birthday never is anymore. I don't look forward to them.
The awful truth that I'm getting older and do not have somebody to get older with me is a weight on my shoulders that is almost to much to bear sometimes. Feels like a nail being driven into my rib cage.
Probably shouldn't be writing about it, a watched pot never boils right. It just strikes a particular poignant moment with me today.
I am going to be able to cross off one of my lifelong goals today on my list. I actually have a list. Getting to not only attend, but take photos at a Texas Rangers season opener has been a dream of mine for a very long time.
I can't tell you how excited I'm going to be in a few hours....that's the problem.
What good is child-like joy if you don't have somebody to share it with.
