Here’s To A Good Year December 12, 2007

Tomorrow (Wednesday), I turn another year older and let me tell you this has got to be my biggest milestone yet.  

For some unexplicable reason, my entire goal as a young child was to be 23.  I didn’t want to be an astronaut or a doctor or anything else…just 23.  It just seemed like a good number.  A couple of months ago I found an old journal that we had to keep in school and I was finally able to figure out why exactly this was such a special number for me.  I would have been about 8 years old when I wrote this and in the third grade, but it sure answers quite a few questions.

‘

Out of ‘collage’: Check

Not too old: mmm…that’s questionable

Not too young:  Suppose so

Have my own car or truck: Check

Have my own house: Not so much

Have my own pets: Unfortunately not

Not having to listen to GO CLEAN YOUR ROOM or ‘YOUR’ GROUNDED FROM YOUR GAME GEAR:  Check and Check!

I guess I’m half way there…but let me tell you, there sure is a lot of pressure on this year to be a good one.  At least I didn’t talk about being married and having seven kids at this age (that was another one of my aspirations as a child).  

But anyways, here’s to a great year ahead!
