I can't believe I will be 37 this week. It seems like just yesterday that I was 17. Last night we went out with some friends for their birthday at Toro. The bouncer thought I had fake ID because he didn't think I looked like I was born in 77. He ended it with, "good for you man." That felt good.

Digi Raverz in RochesterCategory: dancing
Turns out the party is sponsored by kikwear. I should wear my 90s kikwear to go. 
Looking back at this time last year, I was eating much better food (e:paul,57161)

"The sky will be darkened by the wings of many bats. The fallen people will invoke the name of the undead king and when the clock strikes the hour of the beast, the undead king will reveal himself in his true form as the beast. Then angels will shoot arrows of hope and light at the loved ones of those they've been sent to protect, and a miracle will happen. Please always recycle." The Darkness is Coming...The Chosen will be summoned...January 2014....

Whats Going On With MeCategory: life
Work is totally consuming, I haven't been doing anything other than work recently. I seriously work like 60 hours a week. At least it is extremely interesting and always changing. I always feel like we are trying to get to the end of another, OMG, we need to create this complex, highly integrated, inter-system solution that we were supposed to finish a month ago, and here are the few minor details we thought through - run with it. Honestly, it is a feeling and pace which I kind of enjoy and they really do give me a lot of free reign and control over the projects.
However, there is also all this other unimportant meta work and bureaucracy that creeps up 24 hours a day and needs to go away at some point in my career. Its that crap that kills me. I want some firewall between me and that work. Kind of like how the physicians have midlevels. If I don't handle all their smaller issues around the clock that build up. Most of the issues don't even have anything to do with me, people just come to me for my problem solving skills which seem to be more honed than most. A lot of them come from technology phobic end users. I am starting to think that my problem solving skills are not a blessing but rather a curse as I am literally inundated with what I consider simple issues that other people are freaking out about.
Well that is that. Tomorrow we are supposed to go dancing in Rochester. So I will get one evening to relax. Unfortunately, I was having some horrible Urinary Tract Issue that involved having to get a cystoscopy this morning at 7am. Lets hope tomorrow is less peeing blood from the cystoscope cutting my urethra and more fun dancing.

Pissing in the Devil's HoleCategory: hiking
Sounds like a leather daddy S&M porno from the 70s but really it was just a pit stop on a long treacherous journey to see the Devil's Hole in icy winter morning with (e:robert), mickey, (e:joe,58570) and (e:terry).
I still don't understand where his mouth is located. Does anyone know?

We're legitimately pushing 40, Paul, and it's weird. I remember when I used to think 40 was such a grown-up age, and I still don't feel like a grown up!
While Kevin's friend thought I was 32 lol.
