31 ain't no thang

Well, another year, another year older. I am officially 31. I know, it's not as big of a deal as turning 30, but I can't say that I'm just 30. Now, I'm a 'thirty-something'. It's OK though. I never really feel any older. When I'm no longer interested in playing games and need Viagra, THEN, I will feel old. I did have a bit of an old moment when Nirvana's "Smell Like Teen Spirit" came on the radio and realized that I first heard it was in high school, 15 years ago.

We had a pretty good day. Jessica stayed home to make me a birthday cake (carrot cake with cream cheese icing. YUM) and we went to lunch at Ruby Tuedsay's, then to target to get some things that we needed for Alydia. Then, Jessica made me my favorite dinner, schnitzel, which is breaded pork, fried, and topped with dill sauce, along with mashed taters and asparagus. (Double yum!) After that we went back out to get some Halloween decorations. In between, I cleaned out my garage finally so that I can park the car in there. I know, you aren't supposed to do stuff like that on your birthday, but it needed to be done. I'm going to close the evening with some drinks and relaxation in front of the TV. Oh, for a present, Jessica got me a cool Brutus pen holder for on my desk. I'll add pictures tomorrow, if I get the time. I also need to post the kid's jack-o-lanters. Alydia's is cute, but Gabriel's and Noah's are sorta scary. We designed them ourselves.
