Wow, Suddenly I Feel Old
Its not bad enough to get exhausted come 9 pm on a weekday, is it? At 24, I find myself suddenly uninterested in partying. I stayed out late tonight because it was a dear friend’s Angels and Demons party at once of my favorite karaoke spots. Happy Birthday, by the way. After parking my car about a block from my house, two kids, both about sixteen approached me. They were obviously intoxicated by something.
“Um, we come in peace,” the first one began, looking at me suspiciously. It makes sense, as my makeup is all but smeared off and I’m sure I smell like beer, cigarettes, BO and my friend’s attempts to remove the liquor from her body by hurling it into the bushes. ”We forgot out IDs” he continued, “and need to go buy cigarettes. Can you help us out?”
I channeled the days of high school drama and went “Dude, I’m so sorry, I really shouldn’t have even been driving. I”m totally gone.”
The kid bought it, even walked half way to my apartment with me pretending that I couldn’t walk straight (it wasn’t hard I was in heels).
As I got into my apartment I realized two things. A) They could key my car…or b) that I got old real fast.
Interesting. And now I go to sleep in full make up.
