Do I Look 40?

Eventful day today!

Went out canvassing at a local park with some TRUCT pals. People seemed very receptive, turns out people like free things and improved public services, who knew? Hot as hell though. I wish I could have been running around in the water area like the kids there were.

When talking to one guy I mentioned my age (part of a usual spiel about how as a college kid I would like more access to public transit) and the dude said, "21? I thought you were 40!" He clarified he was joking but damn lmao, first time I've ever gotten that.

For the record I think I look like an average 21 year old. Maybe a slightly worse hairline than the mean.

I'm going back to canvassing on Thursday, and we're building our first bench Saturday. It's stuff like this that really makes me happy. I adore my city and helping actually make things better here (instead of just sitting there angry doing nothing) is good. Hope I can continue helping TRUCT out.

After getting home, I played some Ace Attorney 4 with some friends. Very fun game. We used to voice act when we first played (which was like a year ago at this point) and I didn't realize how much I missed doing shitty voice acting with friends. It really is fun as hell.

Been getting back into the Beach Boys. Or rather, Brian Wilson. Not as much the others. Just adore his voice. I need to continue my SMILE research. Thank you to Morgan for putting me onto this and pushing me to watch Brian Wilson Presents Smile. Needed that kick in the pants :)

Oops.

Oh yeah, I had a blog, didn't I?

Oops.

I realize I kinda abandoned this quickly. My fault. I think I just overthought what I was writing. When every blog post has to be some big deal it's easy to just not write. I forgot that that's not what most blogs back in the day, my inspiration for this blog in the first place, were about. They were dumb, they were daily or weekly or whatever updates on the authors life. Not every post had to be a essay on the complexities of existence.

So I intend to get back to this, and to do that I'm going to be transforming this into that sort of daily (Or almost daily, à la Itoi) blog. Sometimes it might be essays on the complexities of life but far more often it'll just be updates on what the hell I'm up to. 

Things have changed a lot since I last posted. For the worst. Very much for the worst. I hope that trend will reverse as I keep writing. At the very least this may be an interesting time capsule of a horrible time to whatever poor nerdy kid finds this 27 years from now.

For those wondering about what I've done today? Nothing. Just lazed around. But that at least gave me time to do this, so worth it I suppose. 

I promise future updates will be more interesting, lol. Everything's gotta start somewhere.
