3 and a half miles of glory this morning. Lots of complaints, which was expected, but your boy was cruisin for a others’ to get a bruisin. I really do enjoy getting to lead, and trying to do something different and exciting. #norepeatQs. Small coffee with B&G having their morning breakfast, but they already got some $ out of ol Spud, so they didn’t need me there. Good to have Bozey join those of us who were there after a swim. Don’t forget your S4E shirts like I continue to do.
41 is a pretty useless birthday, as are pretty much all of them between 40 and 50. Maybe some will get access to the full menu when they turn 45, but for the most part, they are all HJ birthdays. Except Marlboro, every day is his birthday from that respect. In any event, 41 being the first birthday after you go over the proverbial hill, and things couldn’t be better. We can all push it. We can all smoke it. We can all joke with each other and take jokes from each other. We all make each other better. I appreciate you guys having kept me sane since age 34. Crazy to think I’ve put up with you guys for that long, and vice versa, although talk of bourbon and dicks would really lock anyone in. Nobody else I’d rather spend my mornings with.
