I love this time of year.
With my car out front, I have a doctor’s appointment tomorrow to get some test results back and a check-up post hospital stay. The only thing I worry about is me losing weight pretty rapidly. I go down a new jeans size every month.
It’s like a ghost town in my neighborhood. I’m probably the oldest person living on my block, or even the surrounding mile, so all the kids are going home to mom and dad for the holidays. Usually it’s busy with the sounds of kids who can’t handle their alcohol, doing some kind of damage to a really beautiful neighborhood. You have your college kids and post-college kids still living on that campus dream. Plus, I have these neighbors, directly across from me (literally, feet away), who have sex constantly with the window wide open. I’m so close to their window, I can tell you where her birthmarks are. Seriously? I can’t believe I only have 3 months left on my lease… less than that, really.
Then my birthday is Friday. I am at the point in life where people are starting to make old jokes on my behalf. That ain’t even fair. Having the best birthday plans I’ve had in years, I’m really excited. When I was a kid, I didn’t think I’d live this long. With all my health problems combined, I am super lucky and I am not complaining at all about turning 29 years old. But as the year comes to an end, I still feel like there is unfinished business. Though, as the clock hits midnight, I’ll have my kiss and start off with clean slate, like I do every year.
Readers, things are going really, really well on my end. Your loyal blogger is happy. I am going to post a video within the next few days, but I’m taking some time off to be with the people I care about most -- because that’s what the holidays are about. I think I'm going to start vlogging more, try to put a vlog up every Thursday (days I have off). See you soon!
