Despite my ever-increasing amount of grays, I’m not THAT old. I can still out argue you.

The big 3. Vapors. No… vapors, vapors, vapors! Get it? I said it three times… because she’s three… oh forget it.
And you know you’re old when you have the following exchange with another “adult” that can, you know, vote, buy smokes, and/or let their goodies hang out in Playboy:
You: “Blah blah blah ‘Debbie Gibson’.”
Them: “Who’s Debbie Gibson?”
You: “Oh you know, ‘Electric Youth’, ‘Lost in Your Eyes’?”
Them: (blank stare)
But hey… HAPPY BIRTHDAY!
I tried to find some interesting facts from this day back in 1982 to impress you with but, as it turns out, not much really happened that day.
NFL players staged a strike that ended up lasting 57 days. Eh. It was the first ever “International Day of Peace”, which could’ve been kinda cool but I didn’t even know that there WAS an international day of peace to begin with, so that’s disappointing. Plus, those two events kinda work against each other so they end up being a wash.
I did, however, find that on September 21 in 1956, Mickey Mantle hit a 500+ foot home run against the Red Sox at Fenway Park, but the Yankees managed to leave 20 men on base and lose the game 13-9. THAT’S good times.
Another year down the tubes. That makes 29. Which is almost 30. Only another 40 or so years and I’ll be as old as Johnny Cakes! Dang.
Has it really been a year already? Pretty soon our little girl is gonna be getting her license and goin’ off to college and canoodling with (GULP!) boys! Well, maybe not that last part. At least not for a long, LONG time. Maybe when she’s 30. If she’s good. And asks nicely. I think I’m gonna puke.
Yep. She’s the big 2-8 now too!
Happy birthday to Sheri! Happy Birthday to Sheri! Happy birthday to Sheri… Happy birthday to Sheri!
It’s my birthday! The big 2-8. Yep. That’s almost 30. Oi… I need to start saving up for a walker.
Tristan Russell McClurg arrived today at 1:04 p.m., weighing in at 8lbs. and 1oz. The day started early and was long and rough but everyone is doing well.
He may look all cute and innocent now but don’t be fooled… it won’t be long before all the poopin’ starts!
Congratulations!
Ryan James was born today at 4:57pm. He weighed in at 7 pounds 12 ounces and 20 inches long. Proud parents Rick and Laura are doing well and are excited as can be!
Now, who’s next?
