Day 14. Today I am posting Con pictures. Selfies or photo ops I did at cons. These photos are from @clexacon and @emeraldcitycomiccon. I had a blast at both cons and met some really awesome people. #30till30 #itsaconthing #clexacon #eccc #earper #legendsneverdie https://www.instagram.com/p/BxG_EUNpkiW/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=ozt9mx4x5as4

I turn 30 in 30 days, and the whole 30/30 thing made me think of that old HBO show 30 by 30 Kid Flicks which was one of those moist, unventilated corners of the late 90s in which my childhood delusions could fester. I wanted to have a short film featured on that show and it never happened despite writing a whole bunch and realizing the process was just as rewarding to me as the end product. I've only caught vague whiffs of desire to progress since then. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀So flash forward several millennia and I'm sitting here on the cusp of my thirties with not much to show for all my talk of boundless creative energy other than a handful of short films of wildly varying quality ranging "garbage" to "meh"; a novel and a novella I'm unhappy with; a card game I likely don't even own the fucking rights to anymore, a web show gone dim without much hope of revival, and a million half baked ideas sitting in dusty notebooks and sketchbooks and clinging to the rotting inner walls of my skull. I've been making huge strides of progress lately but it seems too little too late, and by the time I get to where I want to be with those skills, I'll have wasted even more time. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀Rather than just let it win and allow myself to die with an empty soul like most of humanity, I want to instead use these last 30 days of youth to ignite that tiny flicker of light inside me that wants to be and wants to do and wants to love and wants to make. Every day until my birthday I am going to accomplish something. Not a substantial project, just a realistic and achievable goal I can manage in the time allotted to me outside of work and life's responsibilities. I'll post them in tens so as to not spam the 0.68 people who take the time to look at my stuff here, so if you want to watch me finally let Dougie be Dougie now that he's blissfully free of all the poison in his life and is working diligently to scrub and shine his own psychocauldron of steaming, piss-flavored mental disorders, you're welcome to join the ride.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀And if you don't want to, no hard feelings. Just ignore me. You most likely already do, so it doesn't matter. #30till30 https://www.instagram.com/p/BnuA6vwlj-0/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=12t76le7w218y

Today, I had a pretty epic concert to attend at Golden Gate Park. Alas, a giant parade in my neighborhood stopped pretty much all public transportation. So I treated myself to lunch and a creative writing session in my Moleskin. #30till30 (Taken with Instagram)

21 more days. When I quit dance I started playing softball. I come from a family of lady ball players. I also played catcher just like my mom did. These are all little league pictures. #30till30 #softball #earper https://www.instagram.com/p/Bw0y55Ih2yX/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1jyqiwsb3ws7h

Day 2. There are pictures from previous birthday parties. I guess unicorn pinatas have always been a birthday staple for me. My mom used to do this thing where she would wake us up on our birthday and immediately take a picture. I also had a huge 13th birthday party and a sumo suit party at some point in high school. #30till30 #birthdayparties #earper https://www.instagram.com/p/BxlyvcOJj19/?igshid=s7bi5pvgc2ux

Day 5. I have been posting about my best friends. These are all pictures of the three of us together. We have been friends since freshman year, but got really close junior year. They are some of my favorite people, and my life would suck if they were not in it. #30till30 #bestie #thjt #earper https://www.instagram.com/p/Bxd2UAvJMMJ/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1gjy2cj0f7g17

Day 6. This is also my best friend. I met her through softball in high school. I have never met another person like her. She is crazy in the best way. We feed off of each other's energy but can also have chill days. She is a great mom and an amazing person. #30till30 #bestie #thjt #earper https://www.instagram.com/p/BxbaxLAp-jV/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=15buli6l17y4t

Day 7. This is one of my best friends. We met through our other bestie who I will post about this week. We have had movie nights, chill nights, and crazy party nights. We played golf together, worked together, and went to college together. She moved away for awhile, but she has always been there for me. I couldn't imagine my life without her. She is the best. #30till30 #bestie #thjt #earper https://www.instagram.com/p/BxYqW4tp6pT/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=3exsx4yfl9pg

Day 9. Today is all about things I like to do. I like to be outdoors. I like off roading, camping, swimming, and hiking. I love to ride roller coasters and be at the theme park. I also play video games, read all the time, and go see as many movies as I can. #30till30 #outdoorlife #campingonthebeach #mariokart #earper https://www.instagram.com/p/BxTo6ZMJk2o/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=h1k2k31bxx03

Day 10. In high school I played golf. My softball coach was the golf coach and one of my best friends also golfed. It's a sport people in my family have played and I had a lot of fun on the course. I do have more fun now just going to the range and hitting balls. #30till30 #golf #highschoolsports #earper https://www.instagram.com/p/BxQ9sm8JwFo/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=16p0nu9iv1i47

Day 11. Graduation pictures. The yellow gown was my high school graduation. The black on was from college. Both were super exciting and I had fun with the people that love me the most. #30till30 #tbtograduation #earper https://www.instagram.com/p/BxOiL20pR3X/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1k86p9s87ss5f
