Uh oh. It's coming. I feel it looming over me, creeping closer day by day. It won't be long now. I should be ready for it, but I'm not. Oh well. There is no stopping it. My birthday. Ugh.
It will be nice to have my parents in town. I just don't want my sweet wife to worry too much about it, since we are broke and can't afford any kind of party. I don't need one.
