Party like You've Never Been Hurt
Dec. 20th, 2015 12:20 pmEveryone in my family is probably going to forget my birthday again this year, which is sad, but at least someone remembered...
Meanwhile I am housesitting in the lower east side of Manhattan and gearing up for a day of eating and drinking and partying. New York City is not Hawai'i or Paris or Tokyo, but it will do for this year. Next year I'm thinking I'll spend my birthday in London.
I've been feeling lost and alienated lately. I took up several risky endeavors that didn't play out as I'd hoped they would, but I think the thing to remember is that most people never even find the courage to fail. At least I managed to escape my family in rural Georgia. If I accomplish nothing else in my life, that will have been enough.
