Being young was getting old,
So I was forced to try something new:
Being old.
So far, old feels a lot like young,
Just slightly older.
And while old still feels new,
I imagine it gets old fast.
For a year from now,
I'll be old anew.
Thank you, thank you.
You need to publish that somewhere.

I like this. we're on for next saturday if you still want to see the Andrew Wyeth. TKO and I were thinking of arriving at 2ish. How do you feel about that?
Happy birthday, biggest brother. I love you.

What happened to the story about your visit to the medical clinic?
Posted by: jonathan at February 16, 2006 09:49 AMthanks for your wishes, everybody. so far, i'm still 30.
jonathan, i changed the date on the entry about the visit to the emergency room, just so it would be in chronological order. i think it's early january, basically.
