Two friends of mine that I went to high school with just had their first kid. His name is Dylan. He was 6 weeks premature, but is healthy and will be comming home soon.
...But damn! I feel so old! And I'm only 19! I mean, I feel like I'm my dad's age right now. I really can't explain it, but it blows me away! Anyone know what I mean?
And it really makes you think, y'know? Like, ten years from now, Dylan will be part of our "old" stories we tell. I'll only be 29. In 21 years, he'll be joining us at the bars, and he'll no longer just be part of our stories, he'll be reliving them with us. And I'll only be 40 then. And by then, I'll probably be married and have my own kids. And these first 20 years of my life just flew by. :tard:
God. I'll tell ya, nothing will make you feel as old as having a child, or having a friend your age having a child. And nothing will tell you better that your own childhood really is over. It's almost kind of sad.
But hey, Dylan will be a cool kid. And I'm really happy for them. And hopefully 40 won't come too quickly. ;)
