A letter from May 14th, 2020

Dear FutureMe, Hey. I'm not really sure what to write if I'm being honest. You turn 24 today. That's kind of crazy. It's you're golden birthday! I'm about to turn 19 as I write this which sounded crazy enough to me. I can't even imagine being old enough to buy alcohol. I guess I'll start by saying I hope you're happy. Even if life didn't turn out the way we planned, even if you're stressed at the moment, I hope you're happy. I'm curious about what has changed. Brandon just snapchatted me (is snapchat still a thing? Please tell me no I'm so over it, I don't wanna deal with it for 5 more years) and I can't tell if it's stupid to ask if he's still in your life. I guess the only way that I would think it's stupid is if he's not. If he is then I guess it's more romantic. Unless y'all aren't together, that'd be a lil awkward. He's not like anyone else in my life. I feel like he knows me better than most. I'm not sure where that will go but even if it doesn't go anywhere, don't lose him. Y'all are good as friends too. What else? Are you married? Thinking about kids? Single? Thinking about the bars? Are you a teacher? Did you go into human resources? Where do we live? I just hope I'm not lonely. Kinda hope I'm hot too but mostly not lonely. I wonder if I'll even remember that I wrote this by the time you read it. Is corona still a thing? I'm over it, to be honest with you. Still pretty pissed it ruined my freshman year. I hope that every year of college gets better than the last but I won't lie and say I'm not worried that freshman year was as good as it's gonna get. I hope I got my act together and started getting the A's I know I can get. Eleni must be almost 19 at this time... That's scary. She'll be my age now. Where did she decide to go to college? Did she go Chi O? Obviously I hope so but mostly I just hope she's happy. How are mom and dad doing? Our cousin Jimmy had his second child, Madelyne, today. She's adorable. I wonder if weed is legalized by the time you read this. I doubt it in Texas. God, please tell me someone better than Trump is in office. I'm not sure how much longer I can handle such a low IQ governing our country. I wonder what your political views are now? I assume they haven't changed too much. Anyway, mom is making dinner and I'm going to go help her because honestly I don't know what else to say. All I have to say is, you'll always have me?
