walking on sunshine

I've been feeling a little old lately. The wrinkles in my forehead are a bit deeper than I want them to be. I worry about occupation and health and wonder about whether I ought to be buying property as a solid investment and settling myself down. So today, it was fun to be 20something again.

G and I walked down to the Castro Street Fair and wandered around, sipping on beer and generally not caring about anything except how to navigate through the crowd and stopping occasionally to check out some of the cuter specimens on parade. Ended up splitting a rice krispy treat that we bought from a young entrepreneur who was wandering around with an REI backpack cooler and suddenly I WAS 25 again.

Interesting that. I've recently gotten the September 95 archives up and running and will be filling in new entries as I get to them. It's strange to type in my thoughts and feelings from almost a decade back and look at them in the light of the 21st century. OK, that's a messy metaphor, but the point is that there's something nice in both reliving the past and reviewing it, though they're very different things.

OK, I think I'm still feeling the treat so it's all good. I'm off to enjoy the rest of the day.
