Well hopefully I have a full lifetime of birthdays to make up for this one.

Even if it is, I don't think I'll try out anything too adult-like until I make it to twenty one, and that's still a ways off. There's time for me to be a kid yet!

[meteorman]

Very true. Though you'll find the older you get the faster the years go.

You will also find that being an adult involves less of being adult-like than you perhaps think it does.

Really now? My Dad always made it out to be serious business. Then again, he worked in an office, smoked a pipe, and was generally a spry and dapperg gentleman.

[meteorman]

It may depend heavily on the adult, but I would hazard a guess that even your father had more fanciful indulgences. For instance, I collect deformed jellybeans.

[cyan_maid]

Hmm.
Well, he was quite well known for his love of hats. And shaving, shaving has always been very important to him.
And we both adore comedians and practical jokes!
So oddly shaped candies aren't too strange a collection.

[...Shucks, she misses her Dad. It'd be great to see him again.]
