I have had one beer, three glasses of wine, and 4 Irish coffees -- in the last year. There was a time I could do that in a single day.

I have the distinct honor of unlocking the achievement of separating from my parents at the age of 2 years and none months at a previous iteration of this event (60 years ago). I personally have no memory of that, but it traumatized my parents and left a lasting impression on my older sister.

Good times.

Somewhere in the last couple of sets of moves I lost my tartan tie. This is heartbreaking. I suppose it is pointless to see if someone would be willing to sell one of these rate entities?
