This is a serious node. I am not joking.
I was born on
February 29th, 1972. When I was born the doctor said that every four years, two things very bad would happen to me on one day. It has
come true.
Damn that
doctor and his stupid joke. The following is what has happened to me every four years on a
random day.
Birthday: Born with
Jaundice/
Heart Murmur
4 years old:
Tonsillitus and
broken arm
8 years old:
Bike accident/
concussion and
grandma dies
12 years old:
Throw up on the girl I liked and get pantsed in
cafeteria
16 years old: Lose tickets to
Michael Jackson concert and buy
expensive scalped ones but they are
fake
20 years old: Car breaks down
in desert and
gas tank expodes burning off all hair on my face and head
24 years old:
Fiancee backs out of
wedding (although eventually we did get married) and I get
another concussion in
car crash.
Now remember all of these pairs of things happened on
one day each.
This year nothing like that has happened in one day and I think it's because 2000 isn't
officially a
leap year to make up for the
calendar. I
await the rest of the
year.
