Quick flyby - Mom is reading and I can spend
about 20 minutes on the net.
Things to be thankful for on my 37 birthday, which
is today by the way.
Kid Bro - incredibly proud of my younger
brother. He finally married the girl he loved in the way he wanted to - in a swimming pool at his baby shower. It was one of the most moving things I've ever seen. Best wedding I've ever seen (and I've been to a quite a few). No pomp. No fluff. No pretensions. Just pure love. Seeing kid bro dance in the pool with his pregnant love (they'd been together for 17 years), was beautiful...that my friends is the holy grail. My parents - who were incredibly happy for my brother and didn't push their own values on them . Proud of my family. My friends...online and offline. These things make me feel incredibly rich and happy.
