This week, I took one step closer to CC Version 4.0 (i.e. a birthday). Not there yet though.
It has been a good birthday 'season' good times with special people, good food, and really enjoying a film festival that occurs each November here in StL.
There is much introspection as well. Who do I want to be? What is my moral obligation to my family (in terms of proximity)? How long will the American experiment last? (It is going very well but I am increasingly losing touch with my homeland. I have spent 25% of my life in the US.)
To quote Rush, "if you choose not to decide, you still have made a choice". Yikes. Thanks, Neil.
More heaviness later... For now, I'm celebrating version 3.0 which worked out pretty well. When I was 30, I had never completed a triathon or played the piano. I hadn't seen Europe or Hawaii. Despite major academic success (at a monstrous time investment), I hadn't really done much with my career.
(I'm certainly not done on that front, but there have been some wins.) And I was fairly lonely in a town without many friends. (I have since found wonderful people in StLouis.)
so.... what's next?

Yes, you messed me up. I got confused with the post and missed your Birthday... again.
Sorry Happy Birthday.
See you soon
Vic
if you're still quoting rush, then you're not in much danger of losing touch with your canadian side.
