TURNING 25

I USED TO DREAD GETTING OLDER. I HATED IT. I WANTED TO STAY 21. BUT THIS YEAR, ITS DIFFERENT. 25. I FIGURED I CANT DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT SO MIGHT AS WELL EMBRACE IT. I HAD A PARTY LAST NIGHT. ONE WORD, JAGERBOMB! I HAD A DEAL WITH THE BARTENDER. I TOLD HIM TO WATER DOWN MY SHOTS SO I COULD MAKE IT THROUGH THE NIGHT. ACTUALLY, IT WAS HIS IDEA. BUT THEN, IT DIDN'T ACTUALLY WORK OUT. COZ ITS KIND OF HARD TO WATER DOWN A SHOT OF JAGERBOMB. I THINK WHAT HE DID, WAS HE JUST POURED MORE REDBULL. AND SO, AS EXPECTED, I BLACKED OUT. BUT I HAD FUN. AND PEOPLE AROUND ME THOUGHT SO AS WELL. ONE GUY EVEN TOLD ME THAT I LOOKED LIKE SOMEONE WHO WAS ENJOYING MY BIRTHDAY TO THE FULLEST. HE MAKES IT SOUND SO MUCH BETTER. BUT THERE WAS THIS OTHER GUY WHO WAS BITCHING AT ME THIS AFTERNOON THRU SMS TEXT MESSAGING. HE WAS ALL UPSET AND ALL DRAMATIC BECAUSE HE SAW ME MAKING OUT WITH ONE OF MY GIRLFRIENDS. I THOUGHT IT WAS FUNNY. I MEAN, AT LEAST IT WASNT WITH SOME WEIRD AND FREAKY STRANGER, RIGHT? HE SAID HE WAS UPSET CAUSE IT JUST KILLED HIM. WE USED TO GO OUT. BUT I ALREADY TOLD HIM THAT I DIDNT THINK IT WAS GOING TO WORK OUT BETWEEN US. I JUST DONT LIKE THAT I FEEL LIKE I HAVE TO TELL HIM WHAT TO DO ALL THE TIME. AND HE'S JUST ALWAYS BY MY SIDE, LIKE A SHADOW WITH HIS HEAD DOWN FOR THE MOST PART. I TOLD HIM I WANT HIM TO BE COMFORTABLE WITH ME. ITS BEEN A WHILE ALREADY, AND STILL, NOTHING CHANGES. AND HE KEEPS MAKING PROMISES AND FORGETS ABOUT IT THE NEXT DAY OR REVISES IT. ALL HE EVER SEEMS TO DO IS TALK. AND NOW IM UPSET WITH HIM. HE JUST FIRES ME UP SOMETIMES. BUT HE IS A NICE GUY THOUGH. SWEET, VERY SWEET, THOUGHTFUL, PLUS HE'S CUTE TOO! HE JUST TALKS TOO MUCH. ALL TALK. THATS IT. WOW, NOW I THINK I SHOULD CHANGE THE TITLE TO "THIS OTHER GUY". MOVING ON. I HAD A BLAST LAST NIGHT. SURE I BLACKED OUT. SURE I WAS HAMMERED. BUT AT LEAST I MADE IT THROUGH THE NIGHT. I THINK I WAS ONE OF THE LAST PEOPLE WHO LEFT THAT NIGHT. AND I REMEMBER THAT IT WAS RAINING ON OUR WAY HOME. IT WAS NICE. ITS NOT THAT OFTEN THAT IT RAINS HERE IN THE DESERT. ITS LIKE A BLESSING FOR MY BIRTHDAY. IM SURE IM GOING TO HERE MORE OUTRAGEOUS AND CRAZY HAPPENINGS FROM LAST NIGHT. PROBABLY ON FRIDAY, WHEN I GET BACK TO WORK. AND I AM READY FOR IT. I THINK.
