but not as short as it could have been. I'm 32. Celebrated my birthday with slight fanfare. A quiet walk on the sand by the powerful Pacific Ocean as the sun set over the water. Later a drunken party at Tim's during which I couldn't even hold my own (with age comes less tolerance, I'm learning). And today, a quiet afternoon running errands with the wife.
Some may call that less than spectacular. For me being here today is the most spectacular event since my birth.
