Happy Birthday to Me!

Anoth­er year in the amaz­ing life that is mine. I love it.

As my broth­er told me last night, as we wound up a long broth­er­ly talk short­ly after mid­night, “In anoth­er fifty years, we’ll be sit­tin’ around talk­ing like this on your 78^th birth­day.” Yeah, that’s com­ing right up, bro.

This birth­day is made sig­nif­i­cant by the fact that I now share it: my sis­ter gave birth to her first child, a son, this morn­ing. So I am an uncle now, with a lit­tle Gem­i­ni to spoil. A good start to a fine day.
