I turned 33 yesterday. It was my birthday, meaning I could do whatever I wanted. My wife kept asking, "What do you want to do? Anything you want, it's your day!" But I worked in the morning, and had a 2.5 hour meeting that I had to go to in the evening...so there were only a few hours in the middle of the day that were 'mine'.
So what was my choice for 'whatever I wanted to do' for those few hours?
I took a nap. A wonderful, magnificent, almost heavenly, nap. My wife took the kids, and I had some one-on-one time with my pillow. I woke up feeling so refreshed.
For those of you who think I'm lame, I understand. I too used to be so naive once. Then I had kids. And started working at 5am. And everything changed.
It was the best birthday ever.
