Met a really cool guy today. A former Navy nuclear power program sailor, just like me. Though he is quite a bit younger. 

Swapped stories of our respective experiences, which I enjoyed. Yet I often worry in those moments that I’ll become like the subject of Bruce Springsteen’s “Glory Days”, a relic, trapped in the past. Grave fate, for me, at least.

A Happy Birthday Haiku

A Happy Birthday to Me Haiku!

As I expect most of you know, I have a thing for writing haiku. I actually have a whole blog dedicated to them. They’re fun and packed with meaning in such a small package.

Since today’s my birthday, it seemed like a fun subject.

Anyway, enjoy! And enjoy the day. Seattle’s looking to have quite a lovely one.
