On my twentieth birthday I:

  • Spent fifty minutes waiting behind the scenes for my one small appearance in the school show.
  • Missed the entire first act because of this, but was allowed to see the second.
  • Did the dishes of one hundred and thirty slobby students
  • Completely failed to write any of the stuff I needed to write for the upcoming anthology.
  • Got a cool book of poems.
  • Somehow exhausted myself without getting anything done.

But man, that book is awesome. It has poetry by Kristofer Uppdal and Ivar Aasen!
