Today I welcomed in my late twenties with very little fanfare. After all, not really knowing anybody in Belgium yet, it's a little difficult to round up a crowd to go out and celebrate. But low key is cool too - and so I begin the new year with a Westmalle, a few Neuhaus chocolates, and BBC One - not too shabby, though not the best of years.
I would like to give a few shout outs to the lucky people all over the world who share my birthday - Brian Wilson of the Beach Boys, Nicole Kidman, Bob Vila, Lionel Ritchie, John Goodman, and Josh Lucas, among others. Also, a big shout out to my colleague Keith, who turns 35 today (and who still owes me at least one beer for that whole statue bet).
For those of you in Argentina (yeah, I don't know anyone in Argentina, but you never know) - happy Flag Day! And for those of you time travelling to 2007 from ancient Rome - happy Festival of Summanus! (Seriously, these were the best holidays I could find on June 20)
And for everyone else - enjoy the rest of my birthday and rise a glass to me, wherever you may be.
Song of the Day: Weird Al Yankovic, Happy Birthday
