Bring on the paleontologists

A friend told me about someone they know who almost died and they started counting their birthdays over again from that point. I guess that makes me three years old.

Officially, however, I am 50 years old today.

Emotionally, well, let’s just leave that one alone.

I think there’s some hill or something that I’m supposed to be worried about. If I’m over it, then all the uphill, hard part is over so it should be easy from here on in. And if I’m not over it, the top should be in sight, or I’m standing on it. Whichever one it is it seems to be a pretty good spot to be in.

At least that’s my position and I’m sticking to it.

I accidently made my birthday wish anonymous. It was not intended to be.

Thank you all!

Even anonymous wishes are welcome, though I did wonder about that as I was reading down the list. I didn't think there was anyone I didn't know reading this.

Ah, but do you REALLY know us?

I'd have to bet he doesn't want to know us any better than he does already.
