3 Years of Blog

By any estimation, 3 years is quite a long time. 9.375% of my life! Considering how many other things I've quit, changed, or no longer spend time on, it's actually a big deal that I'm still blogging. Perhaps I do it now just out of habit. 90% of the time I don't feel like I have anything that insightful to share anyway. The other 10% I'm either posting pictures or rambling incoherent negative bullshit.

Speaking of negative bullshit, tomorrow is my birthday! My Mom was kind enough to remind me, that 32 years ago tonight, she was in labor. Does that mean technically my birthday spans 2 days, since I just wasn't born until the next morning? By that measurement, Megan's birthday lasts like 2 weeks!

32 years young...? Never would have guessed that at 32, I'd be in the best shape of my life. I kinda wish I had more time to explore other active type things. For example, recently I've been thinking about fond memories of martial arts class as a kid. I honestly can't even remember how old I was, yet the memory of the dojo, the discipline, the respect... All powerful stuff. But then I think, "When the hell would I have time to do martial arts? And how much money would that be?" I'm so cheap, I wouldn't even spend $5 dollars to eat at a company picnic today. (aside from the fact I don't like Brats).

Enough of my rambling for now. Tomorrow night we'll all go out for my birthday dinner. And then I'm taking Friday off to enjoy a long weekend. My Mom was once again able to get us a free room at the Mystic Lake Casino hotel. (way to go you gambling fool!) As a birthday present, she is going to watch Megan over night on Saturday so Andrea and I can enjoy some time. Hopefully an early morning bike ride Friday and a long run Saturday. Sunday - rest & recover from the weekend of fun.

Happy Birthday - a day late! Yesterday was my parents anniversary and I always think of you that day too. I was out of the house the majority of the day and when I was in the house I was on the phone the whole time - so not on the computer at all. Hope you have a great weekend!
