So I just turned 30....
 

Happy birthday to me.

In the days leading up to this monumental moment I couldn't help but think to myself "wow I'm really freakin' old."

However, now that the time has come, my feelings are completely opposite. I fell re-energized. The first thought that entered my mind was "out with the old and in with the new." Why let an imaginary number bring me down? I can easily let it bring me up and take me higher.

So I've decided to start documenting my life via a new blog that is in the works called "Life after 30." Really it should be "Life at 30," but semantics...

Anyways, so as I plot and plan out my new adventures, I'd like to solicit some ideas and suggestions of things to do in my new found youth!

When I graduated from college and got a job, I asked myself what I wanted to do as a boy and a teen that I couldn't then, but could as a 22 year old with a career. The first thing I did was buy a ridiculous import tuner car; mid-90s Eclipse, bright orange, lowered, rims, turbo-charged with a blow-off valve. It was more ostentatious than Elton John's glasses, but it was a blast. It only cost a few grand and it was pretty easy to modify. It was the car I wanted in high school.

I'm not saying you should go out and buy a rice cooker, but maybe consider what you couldn't do before and can now. We've all got an inner child and they're a lot of fun to indulge.

I hear ya. I went on a little shopping binge today. Got myself a new Hugo Boss suit and some D&G oxfords. It felt great not having to worry about what the price tag was.

Maybe it's time to travel some...

How's the online dating thing going by the way?

Suit up!
...and the rest will follow.
