• met and married my life partner
• graduated from college
• moved along on my chosen career path
• gone back to school
• learned to play guitar and write songs (available here, if you weren’t sure)
• established a more meaningful relationship with my mother and brother
• traveled to Europe

So, so far, so good. Any regrets I may have are far outweighed by the list above and the other positive moments of the past ten years.

Oh — it’s also our nation’s birthday today — enjoy the day off. ]]>
