It’s funny but it isn’t
How — after vowing to yourself that Things Will Change after a milestone birthday or a new year or other life epiphany — you get sucked in to the Same Old, Same Old.
but in the aching familiarity of doom, you realize you really weren’t a slacker. You see exactly how time got away from you before, and you don’t feel so bad.
You just hope that, maybe this time, you can keep your soul afloat enough to move a little farther upstream than you managed to do the last hundred times you promised yourself that things would be great from here on out.
