Doomsday, and another evening of randomness

Posted under Movies, Personal Experiences by Pojut

Our friend Rob sent me a text today, asking if I wanted to see a movie.  Seeing as how Brittnie is away until tomorrow, I figured I should go see something that I know she likely would not want to see.  We ended up going to see Doomsday.  He came by shortly after 7 PM, played a few rounds of Wii Bowling, then headed off.  I’ll write up my review of it tomorrow, but definitely make some time to see it; awesome, awesome movie.

I was glad Rob hit me up.  I wasn’t really looking forward to another lonely night.  Definitely good to hang out with someone, and the Kuney is quite the character.  Overall, an entertaining evening.   He left about ten minutes or so ago.  I’m likely just going to fold the laundry while watching Black Adder III, then will prolly put on Eastern Promises.  So good.

It’s strange.  I turn 24 next week.  I find myself feeling a little bit like an adult, acting a bit like an adult, seeing the world like an adult…and yet, ensuring that I maintain a feeling of childhood.  When I sit down to play a video game, be it by myself or with others, I feel like I’m ten years old all over again.  I think that’s one of the reasons why I like gaming so much; it allows me to harmlessly still feel like a kid while avoiding the denial and bad thoughts that go with being an adult who feels like a child.  These are strange times for me…my thoughts are a bit cloudy.  I find the days slipping away much faster than they used to, and I sometimes catch myself talking about things only adults talk about.  At almost 24, I know that technically I’m an adult…but it feels kind of good to be getting older.  Much as I enjoyed my teenage years (despite some crazy stuff that went down), I’m kind of looking forward to getting older.  I aspire to be the wise older guy that can still identify with younger folks, primarily because I still feel like one.  Not changing my interests, sticking to the things that I have always been interested my whole life.  It enables me to not lose my identity, to retain who I have always been.

Interesting.  I just described Rob.
