Today’s My Birthday.

Today’s my birthday. I’m 39, and I have to leave off harassing Mrs. Unfocused about being the older woman.

We celebrated yesterday with cake and a visit from a college friend and his daughter, which was good fun. On Saturday, we got together with another college friend from out of town, and his wife and daughters, so it was a very collegiate weekend.

I did get my long run in yesterday. I went out late, at about 10:30, so it was already pretty hot, and again, my training fell off in the last couple of weeks, so I wasn’t terribly fast: 9.85 miles in 1:27 and change (don’t have my watch in front of me for the exact time). I’m okay with that, because at least I got it done. I should get a little more running in this week.

Birthday or not, I’ve gotta go to work.

  1. Happy birthday, young whipper snapper! I think I remember 39 – most of it was spent suffering from sleep deprivation.

  2. Happy Birthday! You’re only five months behind me. However, I couldn’t run 9.85 miles right now, not to mention in less than 1:30.

  3. Happy Birthday, youngster! I don’t think I remember 39 at all. It must be the senility setting in. Was it only last year?

  4. Ha! Dawno at AW posted a birthday thread for you and everyone is wishing HER a Happy Birthday. LOL

  5. Freshhell, Mike, Harriet — Thank you for the birthday wishes, old people! I look forward to joining you at the next AARP meeting!

    AC – Okay, this I have to see.

  6. Mrs. Unfocused

    Happy Birthday, Mr. Unfocused–glad you finally joined me in our Jack Benny year!

  7. I’ll be down in a minute, babe. I just need to take the glucosamine for my knees.

  8. Hey, I take glucosamine, what are you trying to say?

    Glad to find someone else younger than Mike as I tease him into his 40th year.

    Happy Birthday!

    Jenn, aka Mrs. Everything Under the Sun

  9. Jenn – I certainly didn’t mean to imply anything age-related, no ma’am. All the kids today take glucosamine. Gingko balboa for memory, too. Like before tests.
