Well, my late twenty has come to a close, and now I’m 30. Sure I’ve been working on grey hairs around my temples for a couple of years now, but now I’m officially old. But at least it was a lot of fun turning 30! Ali planned two parties for me. One was a surprise, and the other was to throw me off the trail. But it sounded like such a fun time that we just did both. The surprise party was more or less traditional, but with more meat. Wolfe made me a “meat cake” which is simply meat-loaf and mashed potatoes crafted to look like a cake. He also made me bacon ice cream, which I was less excited about. The meat cake was very good. Ali arranged for some out of town friends (Tim, Katie, and Eric) to come to the party along with Seattle friends. The second party was a tennis-themed picnic brunch. Basically that means that we dressed up in tennis whites (Ali and I had to buy them for the occasion), played a lot of tennis, and ate a lot of donuts. I had a great time at both parties, and I’d like to thank my sweet wife for arranging them for me.
