I don't spend a lot of time worrying about regretting the past or any "wasted" years; life is short and then we die and nobody really cares anyway.
But looking back 15 years to the day on THIS, it makes me think of what'd I'd do if I could magically become 18 again. I wouldn't have wasted my time playing high school sports or going to college. I'd have tried to start some sort of comedy/theater group and spend every minute trying to come up with funny/cool shit. I didn't get a real job until I was 40 anyway, so my years from 18-39 could've been just as full of failure and loss, but at least maybe building something, and certainly I would've been doing what I'd have wanted to do - and did, in many instances - for free anyway.
Ah well.
