I just realized it was my birthday recently, a wonderful thing. Some time ago I stopped celebrating birhday. It was fun when I was young, but once passed 30, birthday starts feeling much like project approaching deadline, or payment passing due date. I remember once I asked my wife on her birthday, "did I tell you you are ## years old now", and she said "yeah, I try not to think about it". Now it's my turn. One thing came to my mind as soon as I realized it was birthday is, inevitably, movie Adaptation . In fact it kind of cheers me up. "Today is the first day of the rest of my life" , what an inspiration from an old, fat, bald and repulsive Nicholas Cage.
