I was 35 years old. Bought my first house Been married for the second time for 7 years already I was very close to getting divorced, and made some bad choices. Had only one Kid (dog) my Sheppard Sheba Was still looking the big dollars and would sacrifice my homelife I was driving 4 1/2 hours a day back and forth to work, and working 60 hours a week on top of that. My mom was alive, and my family was in better health I was driving a white Ford Taurus with 220hp I had never been laided off since working since I was 16. I took some of life for-granted, such as we will all be around for a longtime I used to have Ice Cold beers with my Father in Law and watch sports. With his alzheimers, he can't do that anymore. I did some physical labor in my job, but not as much as I do now.
Let's see, ten years ago: I had a screenprinting job making 8 bucks an hour I was going on 5 years without getting laid I was living with my parents I was driving a '91 Honda Civic I had really long hair I didn't know what I wanted to do in life Ten years later, I can't find a job I'm going on a new 7 years without getting laid I'm back to living with my parents I drive a '93 Toyota MR-2 Turbo I've cut my hair I still don't know what I want to do with my life I hope it's a positive year
10 years ago, I was 26 I didnt even know how to turn a computer on. I was in my first marriage. I was in a band called Madstone, and we were playing all over Central FL I also had never owned a cell phone I had hair down to my waist I had an 89 Chevy S10 $25 would cover me at a bar I was working as a carpet installer Cant think of much else.
Ten years ago I was living in Overtown near the "old" arena. I was working for the County making about 5.5K a month. I hated my job, working as a grossly overqualified and overpaid clerk for community councils and presenting proposed sales of County-owned land to the Planning Advisory Board, hardly ever using my skills. I had just started becoming more religious. I went to a conservative synagogue. I didn't have a cell phone and didn't want one. I had recently adopted a cat. I miss you soooo much Jakey. I was having a lot of dinner parties. It was my creative outlet.
I was 26 I didn't have or plan to have kids I hadn't travelled outside of Europe My Dad was in better health I was divorcing my now-soon-to be wife! I liked Star Wars I smoked I lived in the same country as the rest of my family I had a better memory I had a better memory
Ten years ago I was 16 I thought I was indestructible I thought friends should and could be trusted implicitly I didnt live in constant pain I thought I knew far more then I do now I didnt value people and experiences as much as I do now I drove a 1989 Subaru wagon, and didnt care I was doing all my school work in 2 days and working the other 3 doing construction I lived to play sports, of practically any kind
