Half-birthday

[rosebudchick]

I officially have six months left before I can drink legally. I can drive a car, vote in national and local elections, buy many kinds of illicit materials (cigarettes, lottery tickets, pornographic pictures and/or movies, and adult novelties), visit strip clubs and some casinos, live independently, and even make decisions about my marital status

I used to have a half-glass of wine with family at dinner (before motherhood and now working three jobs) sometimes before I was 21. The government can't really say anything if they don't find out.

and being 21 is over-rated. My 21st birthday sucked. My boyfriend's parents and sister followed us to the restaurant and made dirty looks at me when I drank a glass of wine.

Not only can you not drink... don't forget about all those nice fuddies who would love to take away birth control, EC, and abortion bc it makes them 'uncomfortable'... I love how their right to 'religious freedom' means they get to control my life... anyway. Bleh. It's all them basically telling us that we can't be trusted to make our own decisions. I hate government.

if we're allowed to fight and die in a war, we should be allowed to have a damn drink of alcohol.
