A fish I met in the restaurant yesterday. Is he/she looking at an old man?
The old man at his birthdayOnce more I'm celebrating my birthday. Later today, I'm going to a party with my family. That'll be fun!
Yesterday I was out with a couple of friends and we talked about getting older. We all agreed that it feels a little weird. Inside we're the same persons, but when we look in the mirror - or we think of our age it feels strange and unfamiliar. Who is this person that suddenly is a grown-up man? I'm still the same inside I guess. Only a little more confident and secure - but looking older on the outside. Looking at the outside i realize that this life is short, incredibly short. I remember my Grandmother's sister always said that "it feels strange to be old". I'm starting to understand what she meant. Anyway, I do enjoy life, and I love living it. I want change in certain areas, but I'm so glad that I've come this far.

Thanks! Nice to have a compliment at my birthday!
Wow...what a thrill to walk into a new year older and wiser!?
Bless you old friend, I look forward to celebrating together in Seattle...this year! Probably not, but in spirit, yes.
Great to hear from you Celeste! I was actually thinking about you today, so I was happy to find a message in my blog! Take care and all the best. Hope to see you here in Norway in 2006!
