42 years

Birthday today.  Great weekend of fun.  Parties and drinking with friends.

Big changes for me since 40.  I was employed at Infosearch Media – the second worst job of my life.  First on the list was Zenith Insurance, and both were bad for the same reason – the people I worked for.  Ron and Mary were absolute morons, with no idea what they were doing.  Steve was just plain mean, and shady to boot.  George never, ever, EVER listened to anyone – and imagine he still doesn’t.  So I started my own thing.  Scary and dangerous.  Wouldn’t trade it for anything.

Health is worlds better.  At 40 I weighed 250, took tons of meds, and couldn’t run a mile with a gun to my head. Now I weigh 212, take only 1 pill (and that will go away soon enough), and run 3 miles routinely for my morning cardio.

Sydney was 8, in 3rd grade, and still very much a little girl.  Now she’s 10, in 5th grade, and spends weekends in Vegas with her little friends and rockstar dads.  She is less of a little girl all the time.

Family is still good, Pammy is still  good (very good, actually), and I still fly and golf.  If I’m doing this much better two years from now (and I haven’t had to kill someone trying to date Sydney) I’ll be almost TOO happy.
