Waiting for the subway at the crowded Cecil B. Moore station, I attempted to mind my own business as the throng of people screamed around me.  But one person’s conversation stuck out to me:

I’ve been 21 since February, and I’ve only had two drinks!

She was proud of it - like it was a huge accomplishment.  Which, I’m sure, it was.  Her friend responded with an excited “Congratulations!”  I can’t say that I haven’t had two drinks since February…and my 21st is on Sunday…
