Lots of couples have their perks. Brad and Jenn adopt/have kids like children are going out of style. Ryan and Rachel had The Notebook. Tom and Katie have alien spaceships. Mari and I have our birthday wishes.

November 4th is Mari’s birthday. I can’t totally recall everything that happened that day… but something like the most historic presidential election of all time?

January 18th is my birthday. I was born in Pittsburgh, so it was a great gift to see the Steelers advance to the Super Bowl.

I can’t wait to see what we get next year…

Even Facebook wants me to have a happy birthday. Gee thanks Facebook!

To all you who wrote on my wall… I will be responding to them tomorrow. I have a Steeler game to watch.

Apparently I’m 23 today, although I don’t wish to claim that. The extent of my birthday plans will be sitting on my ass in Baltimore and watching the Steelers win. Woo-hoo.

I think it’s funny how Facebook is the new(ish) birthday card.

Thank you for all the birthday wishes everyone.
