turning 27
So, I'm officially in my late 20s. I asked my mom what made her feel older, me turning 27 or her being a grandma. She said me being 27 made her feel older since being a grandma could have happened 10 years ago. So, take that for what you will.
It was a pretty great day. I got some cool stuff I wanted to showcase.
My step dad got some new records for my collection:
With a little spending cash I went out and purchased a new journal. For those who don't know, every year for my birthday I purchase a journal and use that until my next birthday to try and encapsulate me at that age. I'm now on year 3 of doing this.
this is basically the exact one I got minus the pencil
I also got a copy of the Scott Pilgrim graphic novel which contains volumes 1 & 2. Which I proceeded to crush within a few hours on top of reading the last 20 pages I had of The Catcher in the Rye.
My family and I went out to dinner and went to Olive Garden (I am not beating the autism allegations) and then got a cool mint chocolate chip and oreo ice cream cake which was delicious.
My wife, daughter, mom, and I all went out for a walk, it was nice outside. Snowed like hell 3 days in a row this week, but it cleared up nicely for my birthday.
So, overall pretty low key birthday. I feel like the big birthdays are generally best spent on the big decades or half decades(20, 25, 30, 35, 40, etc.).
Anyway, a big thank you to my friends on here for the birthday wishes. Really hopeful for a good year.
