Brian: Part 3

Welp, as you may or may not know, I just entered my third decade on this earth on Sunday. It hasn't really hit me yet that I'm not in my 20's anymore. My 20's weren't exactly the best for me. I had a lot of rough times during that 10 years and things didn't start shaping up until my last year. I started school, got a job and met my wonderful lady Rose...in that order.
Now that I've started my 30's, I'm more optimistic about my life, whereas in my 20's, I was a bit of a fatalist and didn't see any light at the end of the tunnel. I feel kinda gypped because your 20's are supposed to be fun, but mine were not.
I had a lot of experiences in my 20's that helped shape who I am now, which is a good thing I guess. I made a lot of mistakes that I've learned from. I think I'm wiser and more responsible now, so I guess it wasn't all bad. It just seemed like that at the time.
Anyway, I had a good birthday. We didn't really do anything too exciting. Just had a small little party at home on Saturday and then went out for dinner at the Jasmine Mongolian Grill in Federal Way on Sunday.
I got some pretty cool presents. Rose bought me one of those Crosley record players you see everywhere. I've been wanting one for a while, so I was happy about that. She also got me a cool Dark Knight LP with Batman on one side and the Joker on the other. She also got me these two cool little pictures of Elvis and Rocky. And she's taking me to California next year, but I'm not sure exactly where we're going. She told me via this cool little puzzle that she used with movie trivia. I only missed two questions. So, I'm pretty excited about that trip! I just gotta save up some money.
Work is going well, but we're terribly understaffed, so every week after we get caught up, we get backed up again the next day. That's pretty frustrating, but I'm trying not to let it get to me. They don't pay me enough to stress about it. That's my boss' job.
Let's see, what else...not much else going on. Just packing my stuff getting ready to move.
That's about it for now, my friends.

I'll update again soon.

Paying attention... you're doing it wrong. :-P

I actually spent a few minutes looking for parts 1 and 2...

I'm really glad that you're more optimistic about everything. I'm also really glad to have you in my life. You've made a positive change in my life. ^_^
