Today marks my 36th birthday!
Huzzah!

Somehow, this insane Louisianan managed to survive to 36 years. So, what to do on your birthday when you’re a grown-ass adult?
Whatever you want! It’s just that you’ll find yourself wanting to get chores done so you don’t have to think about it later. Also, cook breakfast.

I should probably set up a “Cooking” category if I’m going to keep posting my dishes. I do love to cook, and today was a special challenge: scrambling and frying eggs on the griddle. They turned out all right, though there were a few moments of panic when the eggs started spreading to cover the whole damn griddle. But given time, I’ll learn. Having Casey next to me to eat the failures is its own reward.

Beyond the cooking and chores, what else is there to do on my birthday? Why yes, writing, of course!

I would say that I’ve become a fairly boring person over time, but to be honest I would’ve called this a birthday well spent back in my teenage years. If there’s celebratory alcohol to be had, it’ll be a 6-pack of Guinness or a short glass of whiskey.
In the meantime, I have an arc to plot and a story to write. Happy reading, folks!
