Yesterday was my birthday (I lied to Facebook), and that’s caused me to think about what the last year has entailed. I’d like you to humor me as I look back at what the past year of my life.
A typical day

- Struck with the sudden feeling that by throwing away and packing up my mother’s personal possessions, I’m intentionally forgetting her.

I’m not sure what the cause is, but I’m suddenly nostalgic. Perhaps it’s a side effect of being in the mid-30s. I was seriously considering buying Now That’s What I Call Music of the 90s. If it weren't for Ace of Base being on it, I might have.
Hell, my company is moving to a new office a few blocks from my old high school, and when I passed it last weekend I wasn’t filled with rage at my time there. First time in 20 years.
