    My sister has been writing "[#] more years until you're 50!" in my birthday card every year since I was 20.

    I've been having sciatica issues. Sometimes if I've been sitting at my desk or driving, when I get up I limp like a weirdo. But it only happens some of the time so I never know when to expect it so I'm like lalalala life is life, and then I stand up and die.

    Not really? I mean I do a bit. I have a job that has me sitting at a desk and driving a lot, but it also has me moving around and I can get up when I want so I'm not like chained there. I think I need to go to a chiropractor honestly

    Part of me wants to do a long road trip this - er, next - summer, or the one after, and I’m pretty sure I won’t be able to. I sit in the car for maybe 20 minutes now and my ass and legs hurt like I’ve been jammed in a trunk or some shit for days. Can’t imagine that working well for sitting in a car for 70+ hours.

    how the hell I always used to do that in my early 20’s I’ll never know. I swear when you’re in your teens and early 20’s your body is made out of whatever Gumby is and then you turn into a goddamn 2x4 and some rusty springs.

    Something that has been hard to reckon with recently is that as you get older while not being in a LTR, your closest relationships are not closest to you. when you have a hard of a time as I do making new friends you become so desperate to hold onto old ones. It sounds so selfish that I’m concerned about my friends being in loving relationships, ugh.

    Can anyone else crack their hips like they crack their knuckles

    I can crack my hips in several directions, and I feel like that's not going to feel great at all in 10 years

    I was going to say “speaking of birthdays” but then realized those posts were months old... but since I mentioned it, for the several year in a row no one wished me a happy birthday this year :(

    Just gonna add onto my previous knee complaint. I don't ever remember being aware of like feeling my knees really until the last few months. Now I feel them when I squat down or just bend my leg up. It doesn't necessarily hurt, it just feels like it always needs to be stretched out.
