cuando era un ternero

[rone]

I always remember my mother's admonition that i should never forget what it was like to be young whenever i felt the urge to criticize a child or teenager. And i haven't. What i do seem to be having a problem nowadays is remembering what a dumbass i was in my early 20s. So when i'm faced with young folks at that age doing dumb shit, my first reaction isn't, "Oh, well, i probably did the same," but, "Christ, what a fucking retard." I'm so damned crotchety...

I do that quite a bit, too. Thing is, I'm STILL in my early 20s, with mid-20s creeping up on me. Thing is, I'm sure I still do dumbass stuff. In fact, I know I do. Sometimes, I want to smack myself around for being such a retard. But, such is life, I guess.

This is one reason I'm keeping a journal. Won't help with dumbarse early-twenties crap, but ought to help with dumbarse early-thirties crap -- it'll be easier to remember what a dickhead I've been with it all written down.
