Birthdays

Got a really cool present from my honey this year for my birthday (and a great card, too!). Thanks, baby! It's a t-shirt that looks like this:

If it seems familiar, it may be that you read this post of mine from August, 2010:

My writing's been immortalized on a t-shirt! And I get to wear it whenever I want!
I'm a lucky man. Grateful for what I do have this month, not so concerned about what I don't have. Tell me, though... what sounds younger: 45 years or 4.5 decades? My grandparents always told me you're only as old as you feel, and you can stay young at heart your whole life through. I always did think they were pretty right-on.

Equinox Approaching Already?

I noticed that it was getting dark out already while driving home after dinner tonight, and that hasn't happened in the last few months. Then I thought, wow, it's almost the 21st, which means we're two thirds of the way from the solstice to the equinox. Only another month of this summer time lighting left.

Time flies when the weather sucks.

I mean, time flies when you're working too hard.

Wait, no: time flies all the time, no stoppin' this train.

Have fun, 'cause time'll fly, regardless.
