I'm Reece Fox; a 23 year old World of Warcraft playing, peace loving, song singing, tree hugger. I've got a sharp tongue, a hot temper, and a sarcastic quick-witted humor. Love me, hate me, just don't try to make me. Being something I'm not just ain't me.

Remember When Tootsie Rolls Were 1cent?

I'm not your typical 22 year old. Instead of partying and having obscene amounts of fun, I'm lavishly boring. Often times the highlight of my day is watching my 20 lb cat, Trebek, romp around the house; shooting from room to room with short bursts of fierce energy. I tend to be an old soul at heart. I find myself more content with life when it's simple and natural.


I've felt like I was "old" ever since I was 10. I'm not sure if that is difficult to understand because, honestly, it sounds natural to me. When I was 16, I felt like I was in my 20's. Now that I'm actually in my 20's I feel like I'm 30. Regularly I find myself thinking "it's not like it used to be" and "whatever happened to..."

The crabby old lady inside me is mildly frustrated with technology lately. Sometimes I just feel like as humans we're evolving too much for our own good. Here's my unoriginal thought for the day: We are so reliant on internet, computers, iphones, tivo, ipods, etc Everything is so easy, and in the process it's making us lazy.

This is a comic I drew to sum up my thoughts. Enjoy.

    You really are old at heart no doubt.

    *hugs* I still prefer real books, you know?

    I've always felt far older too. Well, since around 10 as well come to think of it.

    I remember when Tootsie rolls were 1c..
    I wonder if they still are at the once place I used to get them from as a child..
