Happy Birfday to Meeee!

So today's my birthday... no no no, not in any need of any special attention or anything. It's just a day where I've traditionally chosen to allow myself to goof off a little. So be it that I might not return calls as quickly today, I might not let little things bother me, I let the house get a little messier....

It's just a feel-good day that I just reserve for myself.

I've already lost count of how old I am. Seriously. I thought this would be something that happens once you reach past 70 or something, but no, I think the effect started around 30. You just stop caring anymore.

Birthday's are no longer celebrated as religiously, you don't get any large parties with giant cakes reminding you how many years old you are...so, you just forget. Yes I know it's a bit pathetic.

I'm probably not getting anything this year. Everyone's a bit strapped for cash thanks to the gas prices and economy. Thanks BUSH...you owe me some presents today you bitch. But later today after my wife finishes work she's taking me out to dinner and then she'll take me to go see Iron Man! Whoopeee! Believe me, when my wife agrees to go see a movie like Iron Man with me, it's a big deal.

I jest. You know, in light of all the disasters going around in the world right now...earthquake in China, typhoon in Myanmar, tornadoes across the US. I'm just happy to be alive! Have a good day everyone!
