Nov. 28th, 2007 marks my 29th year on this planet. I can't deny that last year was one of the best birthdays I've ever had. I had recently gone through a divorce and I was trying to make sense out of everything that had happened. My life seriously had taken a very bizarre turn from the year before. The summer of 2006 was pretty miserable. I did have a lot of good friends reach out to me and make things easier, but it was pretty devastating all the same. I guess that is why my birthday was so fun last year. Because much of the year was miserable. It was a turning point in my life. I wasn't going to be sad anymore. I wasn't going to be frustrated. I was going to return to enjoying life. I was going to be optimistic about my future. I was going to refocus my attentions on achieving the things that I wanted.
Last year, I purchased tickets to see Alice in Chains and went with my brother. We had an awesome time and the concert was pretty boss. The next morning I was on Kevin and Bean's What It Do Nephew. I went to Outback Steak House for dinner, which is a favorite eatery.
And spent a good part of the day drunk. And then a couple of weeks later partied with some of my dearest friends.
This year is looking up. I'm going to P.F. Changs with my family. And Saturday I plan to go party with some of my dearest friends to celebrate. I'm not really expecting this year to measure up to last year. It can't. I was down for so long it was one of the few bright spots of last year. This year, I really haven't been down. I'm having a good year. I'm thankful for that. And to top things off, my brother is taking me to see... Alice in Chains. I guess he figured he do me a solid and take me to see one our favorite bands. Not to mention, we'll be seeing Velvet Revolver.
Like I said, this year has been so much better than last year. This birthday won't be as uplifting as last year, but I look forward to having a great time.
