Wow, I just realized it's been a year since I posted a blog here! That's just negligent beyond all reckoning, and must be corrected.

So, 39. This is the last birthday I'll ever have that will still be in my 30's. This day next year, I'll be 40. I'm having a very, very difficult time accepting this, it just doesn't seem like I can possibly be that old. I mean, I still look like I'm in my 20's, I still feel like I'm in my 20's . . . the whole "almost 40" thing just doesn't sit right with me. Someone has to have made a mistake. I demand an accounting . . .

And now, for the obligatory "past year in reflection." Since this day last year, I've moved to a new apartment, made a major career change, made some new friends, had a couple of relationships start and end, had my heart broken . . . yeah, those are pretty much the highlights. Big year for change, this one, apparently. At least nothing majorly disastrous occurred, and I'm ending the year in a relatively good place, all things considered.

Not too sure right now how this next year will play out. Lots of opportunities, lots of challenges, lots of different directions that things can go from here. I guess it's just time to hold on and enjoy the ride.

Cheers!
