Today I turn 29
Today I turn 29 years old. Fittingly, I plan to spend the day at work and then going to class for 3 hours. I do plan on taking a day off for my birthday, but not today. At 29, I have a great girlfriend, family, and group of friends. I have a good job that I enjoy. And, I am approximately 12 classes away from graduating with my MBA. I own a car and a house. I stand about 5′11″ and weigh nearly a buck-eighty-five. My main hobby (unfortunately) is going to school—it takes up a lot of time. But, when I am not doing that, I spend a lot of time working around my house. I have painted nearly all of it in the last 3 months (with the help of my girlfriend) and have even built a desk (with the help of my dad). I also spend at least some time working on my computer (although, admittedly a lot less than I did in the past). This year, I built a computer (assembled would probably be a better word) and created this blog. Looking forward, I really have not set that many goals for the upcoming year. Of course, I want to graduate. But besides that, I would like to learn a little bit more about woodworking and home improvement (electrical, tiling, plumbing, etc.). I would also like to learn more about grilling and other forms of cooking.
Anyways, that is enough self-indulgence for today. Happy Birthday, me!

Here’s your birthday song (written by MC Chris):
You’re one year older, one year wiser.
Rock n’ Roll star, king, czar, and a kaiser.
A room full of friends, a mouth full of cake.
Every present is for you and it feels pretty great.
Youre the man of the hour, the V.I.P.
You get the first slice of the p.i.e.
But first blow out the candles and make a wish.
Put a smile on ‘cus it’s your birthday bitch!
Happy Birthday, sweetie!
