Well, 29 came and went. I have not had much interest in celebrating birthday's since the selfish child became too old to have big parties that were paid for by parents. It was the prospect of getting free loot that appealed to me.
Now it seems you have to pay for your own party and you don't get the cool swag. It could just be that my friends are poor. I know I'm too poor to get them stuff. It is nice when people notice ( thanks Horus!) but I don't go around trolling for attention.
All and all, 29 is pretty uneventful. Not 30 but old enough for your college-aged friends to make old jokes about you. But someone loves me and gave me a fancy Palm Pilot. Score! Now I can carry the digital pics oof me hanging with famous rock stars I've played with (only the cool ones like Kevin Bacon) so I can look important to strangers. Sure my friends will still make fun of me but I would not hang out with them if they let me get away with it.
So 5am = incoherence. Right.
