Live in the past, is mine. I will listen to things over and over because some songs or even podcast episodes, rewind me back to times where I felt comfortable in. I do sometimes poke my head out to see where things are currently in the present, but nothing around really makes me gravitate to anything current-day. But, then I just go back to my hole in living in the past.

People used to tell old people to get over it about them remembering things as they were all of the time. I’m understanding why they do that. Sometimes the present really truly sucks.

    I went to my friend’s kid’s volleyball game. Those girls had on very short shorts that were tight and it made me feel super creepy and I didn’t want to watch. I was trying to support my busy friends with kids, but I’ll never do it again because “these young girls need to put on some clothes.”

    If I was their dad, I wouldn’t let them out like that.

      This reminded me of a moment last year when I volunteered to help clean up a historical cemetery. I get there and not only was I the only guy, but all the girls were either high schoolers or like first year college kids all wearing booty shorts. My brain is making me think I look like a creep being a 30 year old surrounded by young girls in revealing clothing and also making me think “why are you doing yard work in stuff that barely protects your legs??? Who told ya’ll this was ok!!!”
