Just Another Day

Jody posted this at 4:11 pm under what i did today

I normally don’t give a fuck about my birthday; I’m not one to care about celebrating it or receiving gifts; however, this year’s birthday is beginning to turn into an event: emails from relatives I normally never hear from, a party with balloons and streamers (for the kids more than anyone), lots of gifts…

phillip, jody, and dad

Turning 40 years old wasn’t that big a deal to me until others started making it a big deal!

    Nice post.. I’m in the same boat, (35 yrs and my birthday was on the 13th). So; a.) obligatory happy birthday, b.) excellent blog, love the posts, pray please continue them and c.) great pic, I’m also a fellow ex-scout. Were yours also a madhouse of drunken capture-the-flag sessions mixed liberally with adolescent campfire arsonist experiences? :)

    Your dad looks like a porn star.

    I think everyone’s dad looked like a porn start in 1975 or whenever that picture was taken. It was “the look” at the time.

    Happy freakin’ birthday dude. Yes, 40 is a big deal. When I hit 40 last year it got to me a little more than I thought it would…

    > How did you spend the big day?

    Ordered Chinese takeout and ate too much chocolate cake. Excellent!
