A big weekend

On Wednesday I was a 24 year old college student.
On Thursday I was a 25 year old lobbyist.
On Friday I became an Illinois Senator...

I debated bills in the Capital building.
I wore a suit... and looked damn good.
I sat in the big chair and pressed the buttons.
I was even on the big screens and spoke into a microphone.

25 is a milestone age...
  • 10 is the first time you hit double digits
  • 16 you can drive
  • 18 you can die for your country
  • 21 you can legally kill your liver
  • 25 is a quarter century and you get cheaper insurance

I guess the next big one I have to look forward to now is 36... where you can date someone half your age without getting arrested (that one's for you Tim).

I'm studying for a final tonight, whether or not I'm sleeping tonight is debatable. My girlfriend is the best ever, that is not debatable.

  1. Thanks, bro. I knew I was looking forward to 36 for some reason. Now if only your link to Emma Watson worked...

  3. Weird, the link totally works for me in Firefox, but when I tried it in Internet Explorer it didn't work... must be cookies... or the... cache... or temp files... I don't know. I'll link to a different picture.

    PS. Bonus points for the first person to find ME in the picture on the actual blog page.
