X-Men 3.

A drawer in my desk holds what might be considered interesting keepsakes.  Movie tickets.  Yes, I save them.  I have been doing so since about 2001.  I have the movie ticket from my first date, ever, and my second first date, ever.  I remember things about them...this was when we went there for dinner afterward, or that was when we blank, or even the last time I wore my good leather jacket.

I don't want these memories.

They only remind me of things I don't have anymore, of things I never appreciated enough, of things I failed to do right or didn't fight to keep.  Friends I don't have anymore.  People who just fell out of my life, or people who turned on me and were thrown away.  Either way, I don't like losing friends.  I don't like thinking back and remember good times with them only to remember why I don't speak to them anymore.

I'm tired of remembering only failures.  Just once I'd like to go see a movie and remember something right that happened afterward.

I hate the past.
