• Real World

  Let me just put this out there, the real world. Ugh.

  Sometimes I look around and think, "That guy is like 65, and he's been working here since he was my age. What IS the DEAL?" Does that mean that I'm at the pinnacle of life? That from now on, it's just a replay of the same day over and over with slight changes to the molecules that make up this mass I call a body? Probably on a macro-scale, but who likes macro-scales anyway?

  One thing you have to be wary of in this modern world is emotions. Unfortunately, they were evolved into the human body. Why? I don't know. I guess you raise kids better if you are sensitive or something? I don't know, I try not to give life too much thought anymore. Thinking helps sort stuff out internally, but you gotta get it going going externally.

  I am going to be 40 one day. That scares the living shit out of me. 40 year old self, if you're reading this, how's it going? I reckon it's just another day for you and you're laughing that 2011 you would write to you. But it's just scary you know? Being so old? (No offense) You realize you're way more than halfway into dying, right? Your best years are probably behind you? I mean, I'm sure the years were probably pretty cool, but you shouldn't live in the past.  By the way, 40 year old dudes can still be badasses. Brett Favre (remember him?) he was pretty old but still did well in football. And the guys from work in 2011 were over 40 and you thought they ruled. So keep your chin up, man. I'm sure they have a cure for baldness by now, so represent those golden locks like you never thought possible. Remember Thor from 2011? Wear your hair like that. Just for a little while, please. For me. Love you. Be good.
