Turning 31

I will turn 31 in nine days. It doesn't seem that long ago that I was blogging about turning 30. This past year has been pretty good. I think the best thing that happened to me was that I became an uncle. I can't tell you how much my little nephew means to me. He's so great - even when he does grab my glasses. So, it's around this time that a lot of men begin a journey of self-reflection and begin to tally their accomplishments up to this point in their lives - I actually have been tallying since around 23 or so. No, my life has not turned out how I thought it would. If you had asked me at ACU what I would be doing at age 30, my answer would not have even alluded to working in a middle school or working in a mental health profession. It's funny how things work out sometimes. For the most part, I'm happy. I think I need a hobby, though. So maybe that's one thing I can foster in this next year of my life. Any suggestions...all would be appreciated.

Thanks for reading.

31 is really old. Not as old as Chris, but still old. Hobby? I thought you were a biker? Talk to you in a few days, and hey, maybe this year I might send you a card, but don't hold your breath.

31 is SO not old. At least I don't think so, but I could be biased. As far as a hobby is concerned, I think you should start your own personal Zoe group!
