Well, here it is 3:19pm, and I'm 13,426 days and 4 minutes old!! Yessirree, Bob...according to Mom years ago, it was one great pain, pushed out while yelling on the way, and the world's been dealing with me ever since...at least in my immediate vicinity. This calls for a celebration, if you're into that sort of thing; which I am in somewhat of an understated way.
Food, of course, always plays a role in the process as an already/not yet reflection of the Marriage Feast of the Lamb, so tonight is steak, baked yams, some veggie no doubt, and Dos Equis from the fridge!! AND...cherry pie/chocolate cake/caramel-drizzled apple crumb pie as the dessert offerings to top off the aforesaid blessings...with some good Boca Java coffee to wash it down.
So, what have I learned in 59 years? Let's see...
1) Jesus is the Way, the Truth, and the Life; nobody gets to Heaven without Him...it's that simple!
2) To quote a country/western song, "God is great, beer is good, and people are crazy."
3) Things that really matter are not really things...they're people who you can usually trust, knowing full well that occasionally they'll let you down.
4) Rule #1 for the use of a sharp knife is 'Don't cut toward yourself.' Rule #2 for most carpenters is 'Ignore Rule #1!"
5) As a result of 4), always know someone who is good at stitching you up! ;p
6) When in doubt...DON'T!!!
7) I could go on and on, but that's already been done in the Bob-isms of my Self Indulgent B.S., now, hasn't it?!!
So, without further ado...just exactly what IS an 'ado?'
Got aging milestones?
