LeeMobile

Today is my 26th birthday.

I’m now past the halfway mark of my 20’s, and I feel old.  Really, 26 is pretty young still by today’s standards.  Some people still live at home at this age!

But I guess I feel old because my life has turned a new leaf.  For one, I’m a father now, and with that brings in all sorts of responsibilities.  I’m also busier now than I’ve ever been, leaving no real free time for “me” time.  I guess being young is characterized as having lots of “me” time to go out and enjoy and be free from any responsibilities.  Young Lee could go out and get ridiculously drunk and not care; old Lee now thinks “if I get totally hammered tonight, I probably won’t be able to help out with the baby”.

I’m not really griping though, because old Lee doesn’t want to go out and get smashed.  It’s not nearly as enjoyable anymore, and I feel that there’re other more enjoyable things to do.  So in that sense, I feel much older than my age. Gad, I wonder how shattering it’ll be when I hit 30!
