Another year older...

...And, well, just another year older.

Thanks to everyone who sent birthday wishes in all the various ways. You guys are the greatest. It was just another typical day; wake up, go to work, after work head to the garage, after the garage come home to a nice dinner with Jeff, then a quiet evening. Missed out when our good friend Nola stopped by with her Brownies of Absolute Pwnage and a cute card while I was at the garage, but hope to have her visit again soon. Fell asleep watching Comedy Central as I was backing up files.

I suppose it's just another day in the life of a 47 year old man. I guess it could be a lot worse.

I made it through another one! Let's see if I can do it again!

Oh, saw the notification but forgot to do something about it on the appointed day. :-(

Sounds like my birthdays some years although Mom makes a point to celebrate it every year in some way. After all, I came along 16 days after Christmas and just so you know, I'm only 3 years younger than you are roughly. :-)

BTW, happy birthday!

I am terrible about sending birfday wishes through this thing.

[identity profile] ciddyguy.livejournal.com 2009-02-04 03:46 am (UTC)(link)
I'm about half and half on being successful, it's when I see the notification and then remember the actual day so usually it's when someone else has said the happy birthday is when I remember. :-)

Happy Birthday my friend. 47 is the age I had to start keeping a magnifying glass on the coffee table. I couldn't read the buttons on the remotes anymore, even with my glasses! Stay young.

I have a flashlight in almost every room to help me see and read finer details these days. Sadly, I bet in ten years I will be nearly blind. Damn glaucoma. :(

Happy Birthday!

Some Baltimore area guys were up in Lancaster PA this past weekend. I forget now who it was that mentioned you :/

[identity profile] greatbearmd.livejournal.com 2009-02-04 03:51 am (UTC)(link)
I was just up the road too. What was the occasion?

This bear who co-owns a hotel outside of Lancaster had a 2nd annual gathering of guys, very informally, centered around the outlet shopping over there... although I suspect many of the guys were not there for the shopping. The hotel has an indoor pool and hot tub, some guys set up a Wii in the banquet room, and there were 2 organized meals which came as a package with the accommodations. It was nice. I hope to do this again next winter.
