QUARTER LIFE CRISIS

Today I am 1/4 a hundred years old. In that amount of time...
I have been a Christian just under 15 years.
I have been in school 20 years.
I have been married just over three years.
I spent 22.5 years in KY
Lived 18.5 years in Paducah

Lived all but .5 in the same house. This was spent in an apartment with my wife.
I spent 4 years in Murray in three dorm rooms and two houses.
I have been in TN for 2.5 years (also the amount of time I have been in grad school).
I spent 12 years playing organized soccer (7 of it being club soccer).
I have been a Cubs fan around 17 years.
I have been a University of Kentucky Wildcats fan for exactly 25 years.

I have been an Indianapolis Colts fan for around 5 years.

I have been to six major league baseball parks and four minor league parks.

I have a picture of my name on the sign at Wrigley Field. It was taken exactly 15 years ago.

I have worked in two libraries.
I have been to 4 countries (not including airports).
I have been to 20 states.

I have been to church camp three times as a counselor. Never as a camper.

I have owned the same car since I was 16. It has survived two wrecks (but no tickets).

I was voted Most Friendly in Heath High School's graduating class of 2001.
I coached a sorority soccer team (while in college).

I have seen every episode of Seinfeld at least 5 times, I hadn't watched an episode until reruns.

I have been interviewed in the Paducah Sun in regards to riding my bike.
I have gone 19 months with one haircut. It was after 12 months.
I have performed stand up comedy once.

HOLY KNIT

My wife likes to knit. She has made some really cool stuff for me. The latest present is the black man bag that is on my right. In honor of her dedication to knitting gifts for me, I decided to model all the gifts, at the same time.
Starting at the top is my first gift and her first project, the navy and yellow scarf. Also around my neck is the gray tie she made for me over the winter. As you can see I am holding up the chess board she put together over a year ago, it came with the man bag on my left that contains smaller bags to hold pieces. The sweater I am adorning was given to me over the winter (seems logical).
The socks were a Valentine's Day present and the house shoes were a Christmas present. Now I need knit pants to complete my collection. My wife is awesome.

BIRTHDAY, CUBS, SCHOOL

Today, yours truly turns 24. I got a cool present from my wife. She knit, felted, and sewed a man purse for me(picture to come soon).

Cubs are in first place again.

Today is the first day of school. My birthday has been on the first day of school, or around it my entire life. When I was a kid it was quite a struggle for me to look forward to my birthday because that was when school started. I am over it.

Happy Birthday to me.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY WIFE

July 10th 2007.

The picture says it all.
