Getting Old
So today is my birthday, or rather it was my birthday, its pretty much over now. I spent the day working and traveling to LA to meet with a client, not the most fun way to spend a birthday, but not too horrible. The worst part about it is I have to spend it away from my wonderful family. I didn’t even realize it was my birthday when we made the travel arrangements. I guess that’s what happens as you get older, senility begins to set in. I am now less than 365 days away from the big 3-0! Yikes! I remember when 30 seemed a lifetime away and now here it has somehow snuck up on me undetected, unnoticed, and definitely unwanted…
Well I guess it’s not quite here, but close enough to be uncomfortable, like a stalker, and not the good kind.
On a good note, Josh and I stopped at some restaurant on the promenade in Santa Monica and listened to some dude out in the street playing his guitar and singing his heart out. It made me miss the days of singing in dirty clubs and performing. I have been working on some new material, and this evening has inspired me to carve out some time to really polish it off and convince my friend Daniel to put something together with me.
Here’s to another great year of being alive!
