Not a political post. Today is my birthday and a traditionally significant one at that. I always have such expectations for my birthday, they're almost never met. I'd like to think being a little selfish on the day is fine, but I also wish the day would pass into the rest that are in no way about me.
I'm grateful to be here, to have not noticed how long I've been here. Instead of lamenting anything I may have lost to time, I consider everything I'm able to do today that I wasn't yesterday, last week, last year, five years ago...
Update: On his way to visit his daughter in Connecticut, my friend John Ricotta surprise-dropped by, representing my best friends from Hofstra, and delivered a gift card, wildly exceeding expectations:
