Sorry to disappoint you guys, but I really don't have new pics of the twin to post today (someone else took Christmas pics this past year). You'll just have to look at past ones.
Birthdays for my family are often low-key affairs. My folks never made a big fuss over them other than saying happy birthday on the day. I don't blame them for it, my birthday being after Christmas and New Years, I think they were partied out and still recovering financially from Christmas shopping. Mom used to hide one present back from Christmas for our birthday, but we often just asked to get them together as no kid can wait 11 more days for a present if it's in the house. I'm thankful my sibs are not following suit, as evident by my sister taking the nephew out to dinner and games (his birthday was yesterday).
And the day thus far:
- I took the day off! The best present to myself ever.
- Got my driver's license renewed. DMV cameras are designed to make you look as bad as possible. My skin has a greenish pallor like I'm sea sick and I was apparently caught in mid-thought. Oh well, I only keep it for five years and if I get pulled over, the cop may feel sorry for me.
- Got my car tags renewed since I was there. That's one rush trip I wont have to make this month.
- Worked out at the gym while watching "Iron Man" in the cardio cinema. Nice burly guy in the locker room for eye candy made working out completely worthwhile.
- Comic book shopping with a $25 coupon I earned from past purchases. Because of the trouble I'd had using it in the past, the clerk rounded my $29 total purchase to the $25.
- Qdoba for lunch. Enough said.
... And left to do:
- Call the twin (left a vmail already).
- Pet Murphy & Maggie.
- Watch Netflix flicks.
- Work on next Grizzly & The Bear Patrol installment.
