It's been two weeks and being 30 hasn't killed me. Yet.

Last post on this topic. I just wanted to give a very loud thank you to everyone who came out and celebrated.  Between the brewery and the Bowl, it was an awesome day thanks entirely to awesome friends.  And of course, special thanks n' loves to the missus who set it all up.  You're the wind beneath my chicken wings.

Phase 2: Bowl with chicken (note Amber's comments)




Thirty and Dirty

Today is the big day: 30.  I can still remember where I left my keys and I didn't wake up dead - so far, so good.
