I'm 29!

(Show's Blog)

Thinking back to my times as a child and living with my parents, I can always remember my Mother's birthday being a special occasion. And being a child, with thier pre-requisite short term memory, I would always ask on that day "so Mom, how old are you?" and the reply was... 29. Every Year.
It was funny to me in a kid-trying-to-relate-to-adult-humor sort of way, but then, I really didnt get it. That was until 2005. The big 30. Now I understand.

So I took you there, to get you here.

My birthday is Saturday! And... you guessed it.... I'm 29!

Its hard watching my favorite team play on Sunday and hear the announcer comment on how a player is getting old and slow, and how he has lost a step, and knowing that player is younger than me! Or when you buy beer at the supermarket and the cashier doesn't card you. Or hearing awesome songs from my high school days played on the CLASSIC rock station. Yes, I'm aging...I'm getting....OLD.

But in the end, it is what it is. I got it good. A decent job, a great family, an incredeible fiance, and awesome future in-laws. I can't complain.

So, as March 15th rolls around, the Ides of March, I revel in my... uhhh... youth! And look forward to many more happy 29ths. I cant wait.

I know the Irish Isle will make it better! ;)
