jon_chaisson | When I'm 54

Do I have occasional feelings of 'what am I doing with my life' and 'why am I delaying what I could do today'? No more than anyone else at this age, I think. I haven't slid into any midlife crisis second childhood thankfully, and that's because I haven't spent a majority of my adulthood trying to climb any corporate ladders or crunch-working sixty hours a week. My stubbornly sticking to a healthy work-life balance, my long-game writing career, and my lifelong and somewhat unhealthy obsession with music has pretty much kept me from doing any of that. Hell, I'm not even doing the 'I have enough money, let's splurge on a stupidly expensive and high end stereo system' bit either. My PC and my externals filled with media are all I really need anyway.

The new printer should arrive at some point tomorrow, which is totally fine as I haven't needed it just yet. I'm most likely going to bring the old one to the local Goodwill dropoff as they take working and non-working electronics, and I also have several boxes of books that need giving away that have been taking up space here in Spare Oom. I'm thinking I'll do that on one of my future weekday days off.

Do I have any other plans for my birthday today? Well, not really. Picking up my cake that A ordered from the bakery in Laurel Village, maybe stop in at CalMart and Walgreens for a few things, and that's it. I'm not even doing laundry today! I could but I don't really need to right now. I an probably squeeze that in the afternoon in the next day or so.

Okay, back to goofing off! :)
