&lt;p&gt;Greatest house of our generation resided in Stillwater OK.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;This is my old house. Also a tattoo on my arm. It’s awesome that something that happened so many years ago has just as much significance to me as it does to other people. My life’s mission is to have as many amazing people in my life as I possibly can. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Nate thank you so much for being one of those awesome people. &lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://johnnycakes21.tumblr.com/post/43986400349</link><guid>http://johnnycakes21.tumblr.com/post/43986400349</guid><pubDate>Mon, 25 Feb 2013 10:46:38 -0500</pubDate><category>Home</category><category>house</category><category>tattoo</category><category>oklahoma</category></item><item><title>Tonight it&amp;#8217;s a law and order marathon.

You’re just standing there thinking about going to work and picking up your dry cleaning. And also more exciting things like books you’re reading and trips you plan on taking and relationships that are springing into existence. Or fading from your memory, which is far less exciting. And suddenly you just don’t feel at home in your skin or in your house and you just want home but “Mom’s” probably wouldn’t feel like home anymore either. There used to be the comfort of a number in your phone and ears that listened everyday and arms that were never for anyone else. But just to calm you down when you started feeling trapped in a five-minute period where nostalgia is too much and thoughts of this person you are feel foreign. When you realize that you’ll never be this young again but this is the first time you’ve ever been this old. When you can’t remember how you got from sixteen to here and all the same feel like sixteen is just as much of a stranger to you now. The song is over. The coffee’s done. You’re going to breathe in and out. You’re going to be fine in about five minutes.”&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt; - &lt;em&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a class="tumblr_blog" href="http://kalynroseanne.tumblr.com/post/34100583255/sometimes-youre-23-and-standing-in-the-kitchen-of"&gt;The Winter of the Air&lt;/a&gt;  (via &lt;a class="tumblr_blog" href="http://beamuppet.tumblr.com/"&gt;beamuppet&lt;/a&gt;)&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Just got word my buddy Nate Wilson from Asheville , NC broke his left ankle in three different places. He was shredding the Gully Trail Jam this Saturday and took it good. Nate recently spent a lot of time in Cali riding, and was one of the main dudes to help build the X Games courses for BMX this year. Nate will be laid up for a bit , but will be back on the bike in no time. Get well Nate !&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Showin some love for the homie. #getwellnate&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://johnnycakes21.tumblr.com/post/34530741676</link><guid>http://johnnycakes21.tumblr.com/post/34530741676</guid><pubDate>Sun, 28 Oct 2012 20:53:39 -0400</pubDate></item><item><title>bookmiscuous:

&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;You don’t have to achieve great things by the time you’re 25&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;You have intrinsic value above and beyond your perceived utility to other people and society at large. &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;You don’t have to have sex, or have sex in any way that you find uncomfortable or unpleasant, to keep anyone’s love or good opinion of you. They didn’t love you or think very well of you to start with if they demand it. &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;You don’t have to stay with someone who isn’t meeting your emotional or sexual needs because they need you, or you’ve been with them for awhile, or you need to be in a relationship. You need you. Your time is your own and it is finite. &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;It’s ok to work at a job you enjoy that doesn’t make you miserable even if it’s not a career and it won’t “lead to anything.” &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Your life is not a narrative. It is not leading to anything, there is no overarching thesis, it does not have themes beyond the usual shared cultural experiences of your time and place. This is ok. It does not mean that your life is without purpose or meaning. &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;It’s ok not to like or get along with the vast majority of people you encounter, so long as you afford them the same respect, courtesy and dignity that they afford you. &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Expensive is not always better. &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Failure is temporary if you’re still alive. &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;People are both much better and much worse than you’d suspect, but usually not all at once. &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Stop thinking of your future self as a different person and it will be easier to prevent money and health problems. &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Let people help you, lean on them when you need to, and be available to help, but don’t swing too far in either direction. Try to carry your half of the life basket as evenly as you can. &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Set boundaries, and do not be afraid to kick people out of your life who disregard them. You will not end up alone and unloved. People who love you will be ok with your boundaries. &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Your power does not come from money or beauty, but from seeing life steadily and wholly, from a curious and thoughtful mind, and from your ability to say no when you want to, and yes when you want to, and I don’t know when you don’t know. &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;There will be bad times, maybe lots of bad times, but not only bad times. &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Love will not heal the wounds in your soul, but love can give you the impetus to begin the work of healing yourself. &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Life might be a long series of starting over, and that’s alright. &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;You’re really cool, you’re really beautiful, you’re really special. Really. Not to everyone, but to a lot of someones sometimes.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I need to read this every once in a while.&lt;/p&gt;

1. Make peace with your parents. Whether you finally recognize..."</title><description>“&lt;p&gt;25 Things To Do Before You Turn 25&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;1. Make peace with your parents. Whether you finally recognize that they actually have your best interests in mind or you forgive them for being flawed human beings, you can’t happily enter adulthood with that familial brand of resentment.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;2. Kiss someone you think is out of your league; kiss models and med students and entrepreneurs with part-time lives in Dubai and don’t worry about if they’re going to call you afterward.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;3. Minimize your passivity.&lt;/p&gt;


&lt;p&gt;4. Work a service job to gain some understanding of how tipping works, how to keep your cool around assholes, how a few kind words can change someone’s day.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;5. Recognize freedom as a 5:30 a.m. trip to the diner with a bunch of strangers you’ve just met.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;6. Try not to beat yourself up over having obtained a ‘useless’ Bachelor’s Degree. Debt is hell, and things didn’t pan out quite like you expected, but you did get to go to college, and having a degree isn’t the worst thing in the world to have. We will figure this mess out, I think, probably; the point is you’re not worth less just because there hasn’t been an immediate pay off for going to school. Be patient, work with what you have, and remember that a lot of us are in this together.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;7. If you’re employed in any capacity, open a savings account. You never know when you might be unemployed or in desperate need of getting away for a few days. Even $10 a week is $520 more a year than you would’ve had otherwise.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;8. Make a habit of going outside, enjoying the light, relearning your friends, forgetting the internet.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;9. Go on a 4-day, brunch-fueled bender.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;10. Start a relationship with your crush by telling them that you want them. Directly. Like, look them in the face and say it to them. Say, I want you. I want to be with you.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;11. Learn to say ‘no’ — to yourself. Don’t keep wearing high heels if you hate them; don’t keep smoking if you’re disgusted by the way you smell the morning after; stop wasting entire days on your couch if you’re going to complain about missing the sun.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;12. Take time to revisit the places that made you who you are: the apartment you grew up in, your middle school, your hometown. These places may or may not be here forever; you definitely won’t be.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;13. Find a hobby that makes being alone feel lovely and empowering and like something to look forward to.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;14. Think you know yourself until you meet someone better than you.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;15. Forget who you are, what your priorities are, and how a person should be.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;16. Identify your fears and instead of letting them dictate your every move, find and talk to people who have overcome them. Don’t settle for experiencing .000002% of what the world has to offer because you’re afraid of getting on a plane.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;17. Make a habit of cleaning up and letting go. Just because it fit at one point doesn’t mean you need to keep it forever — whether ‘it’ is your favorite pair of pants or your ex.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;18. Stop hating yourself.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;19. Go out and watch that movie, read that book, listen to that band you already lied about watching, reading, listening to.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;20. Take advantage of health insurance while you have it.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;21. Make a habit of telling people how you feel, whether it means writing a gushing fan-girl email to someone whose work you love or telling your boss why you deserve a raise.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;22. Date someone who says, “I love you” first.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;23. Leave the country under the premise of “finding yourself.” This will be unsuccessful. Places do not change people. Instead, do a lot of solo drinking, read a lot of books, have sex in dirty hostels, and come home when you start to miss it.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;24. Suck it up and buy a Macbook Pro.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;25. Quit that job that’s making you miserable, end the relationship that makes you act like a lunatic, lose the friend whose sole purpose in life is making you feel like you’re perpetually on the verge of vomiting. You’re young, you’re resilient, there are other jobs and relationships and friends if you’re patient and open.&lt;/p&gt;”&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt; - &lt;em&gt;&lt;a href="http://thoughtcatalog.com/2012/25-things-to-do-before-you-turn-25/"&gt;January Nelson&lt;/a&gt; (via &lt;a class="tumblr_blog" href="http://vamoose.tumblr.com/"&gt;vamoose&lt;/a&gt;)&lt;/em&gt;</description><link>http://johnnycakes21.tumblr.com/post/32375680002</link><guid>http://johnnycakes21.tumblr.com/post/32375680002</guid><pubDate>Wed, 26 Sep 2012 23:19:13 -0400</pubDate></item><item><title>Tumblr is for rants, weed, music, and of course Trailer Park...</title><description>&lt;img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_magvzjz58H1qj35pao1_500.png"/&gt;&lt;br/&gt; &lt;br/&gt;&lt;img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_magvzjz58H1qj35pao2_500.png"/&gt;&lt;br/&gt; &lt;br/&gt;&lt;p&gt;Tumblr is for rants, weed, music, and of course Trailer Park Boys&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://johnnycakes21.tumblr.com/post/31713781405</link><guid>http://johnnycakes21.tumblr.com/post/31713781405</guid><pubDate>Mon, 17 Sep 2012 00:34:00 -0400</pubDate><category>Trailer</category><category>park</category><category>boys</category><category>drunk</category></item><item><title>Work work work.
