Appreciation post: Hit 20 years in the shop this past Tuesday

Honestly, it snuck up on me because I still feel like the new guy sometimes. Anyone else get that feeling when you hit a big number?

That feeling never really goes away. Time just does that weird stretchy thing.

It does change though, just in a different way. What do you think it turns into?

Hold up, that's just not true. Some feelings get locked in place forever. Like that specific sting from a childhood embarrassment, or the gut punch of a first real heartbreak. You don't forget how that felt, not really. Time just puts it in a box on a high shelf, but the box is still there, full of the same old stuff. It doesn't turn into anything new, it just gets dusty.
