A year more than a Quarter Century

26.
Nov. 16th, 2008
I turned 26. It's weird but all the years from 21 till now it didn't feel different at all to turn another year older but for some reason 26 just felt weird. I went out with my friends, we went to a club. Did the things I've been doing since I was legal to go to club but as i sat in this club with drink in hand surrounded by awesome people it occurred to me that I was too old to be there.

I thought to myself constantly through the night, why am i here? The music was amazing the crowd was decent but it just didn't feel right being there. I felt old, I felt out of place and basically felt like going home but the music is what kept me there. As my friends began to fade I thought I would call it a night. 230 in the AM. We are usually troopers... we usually stay till the lights come on but for some reason we just weren't feeling it. Regardless i had an awesome birthday!

My friends Megan and Sarah both of whom i met on my Contiki tour were there to celebrate with me. Megan unfortunately "piked" however she was in the right mind to, waiting in line to get into a club for that long fuck if it wasn't my birthday i would've left too! But thanks Megan for coming out and being such a trooper! Sarah drove all the way from Portland so that was enough to make me happy on my birthday! She drove up just for me, she didn't even stay for 24 hours she came partied, crashed, ate and left. Now that's an awesome friend!

of course my best friends were on hand and as usual up to craziness. but it was all good!!

My sister remembered something I mentioned a long time ago, speed stacker.. or cup stackers. Look it up on youtube (cup stacking) and you'll know what i'm talking about. LOVE IT! BEST PRESENT EVER!! My sister said it best tonight at my family dinner. "Gail maybe 26 but she'll always be a kid who loves getting toys as presents" and what do i say to that... HELLZ YEA! read my info and you'll figure out what my fave toy is.

Anyways so another year older... I do actually feel older this time. sucks. but as my brithday buddy says "just look at it as another year wiser" and that will do.

Thanks for all the birthday wishes people!!!

until next post.
