Well, today is my 50th birthday.

We (me and a handful of buddies) rented a house near LaPush, and were going to be steelhead fishing most of last week.

That clearly didn't work out.

I'm going to take my girl on a walk around a local park that is usually pretty empty, so I'm sure it's completely empty now.

Then I am going to enjoy the beautiful day by BBQ'g some ribeyes while I drink a couple of beers, then we're going to eat the ribeyes with some fresh vegetables, a tuna sashimi appetizer, and a bottle of red wine (for me, my girl doesn't drink).

All things considered, I'll take it. I'm happy and healthy, so is my entire family (biological and chosen), and it's a beautiful day.

My job is "essential" and my paycheck isn't going anywhere, and neither are any of my team's paychecks, and that's something to be truly thankful for these days.

I've been working 7-7 since moving my office home, but it's just past 4pm and I am calling it a day today...my office looks like Hurricane Katrina, and both of my phones won't stop ringing...

But it will all still be there tomorrow, and so will I.

Fish on...

Todd
