The Spoils of War

Posted on Posted in Thoughts

Today is my 36th birthday.  In the war against time, it is always the chocolate cake that pays the highest price.

Some thoughts on turning 36:

  • Today I am 13150 days old.
  • If I had been born 2 years earlier, I would have had 27 fewer birthdays (pesky leap years).
  • Countries in which I’ve celebrated a birthday: Australia, Japan, Wales, Chile, Venezuela.
  • If you had up all the numbers from 1 to 36 you get 666.
  • Number of paranormal and/or religious experiences encountered in 36 years: 0.  (I expect this trend to continue).
  • Number of cars owned in 36 years: 0.
  • Number of countries visited: 73.
  • 36 is 6 squared.  6 is the smallest perfect number.
  • Number of bones broken: 1.  (I broke my wrist parachuting).
  • The older I get, the less mature I feel.
