Being 21

Today my company mail man came by. He dropped off, as usual, our mail. D and I. And had a smile on his face. So I smiled and said, "Awww, someone's happy today." And he responded by saying it was his birthday today. So I got up and did my happy birthday song and dance. Did he enjoy it? HELL YEAH!! Anyway, it's not some pole dance. It's more like Elanie's dance from Seinfeld. But he enjoyed it and was happy. So I ask him how old he was now. And he said 21. "Ahhh...yes, 21. I remember when I was 21. It was just yesterday. Or uhh...a couple of years ago. Not that long ago...." I said. "Sure, sure, just a few years." But when I told him I was 35, he looked at me as if I were lying. Such a sweet kid, right?

So after he left, I took myself back to when I was 21. And these are the thoughts that came to mind.

-Changing in the car for an audition.
-Trying to say hi to a guy I liked but no sound came out of my mouth. I was shy.
-Walking my dog Booboo and holding him back from trying to attack every person that got close to me.
-Running down 6 flights of stairs and jumping steps. I was fast.
-Dating a guy who was bad for me.
-Working at a shoe store with a woman who looked like the Grinch that stole Christmas. VERY FREAKING TRUE!!!
-Seeing my crush standing in front of my job smiling. I went out to talk to him, but the Grinch called me back in. That was my big chance to make friends with him and get to know him and once again, someone ruined my chances.

The story on that was....I was dating someone, he wasn't. I wasn't dating anyone and he was. So the timing was always off. But then girls got in the way cause they didn't like me and since they liked him, they would try to tell him bad things about me. So it was hard to talk to him. Though at times he would walk over to me and talk to me. I'm not sure any sound would come out of my mouth. And if there was any, I said the wrong things. Which til this day, I'm thinking he might think I'm strange.

Yep.....
But he's married now. So................ :(

And well, that's all. So the guy turned 21 today and as for my being 21 and remembering, I can't think of anything else.

The End.
