Thirty Nine (40 - 1)
 
Today is my birthday and I’m 39. It’s hard to believe that I’m that old.
 
Since I don’t have birthday parties anymore, I try to have a simple relaxing day on my birthday. Today was not one of those day. I had to be down-town Phoenix for a 8am meeting (read traffic), and then I rushed home to take Stefanie to the doctors, and after that we had to go to our primary care doctor to figure why our referrals always seem to get lost with Jennifer. This has happened twice for me, twice for Stefanie, and several times for Stef’s mom and  dad. After listening to the office manager talk down to Stef and I like we were in high school, we have decided to change to another primary care doctor. Dr. Richard Snider (12010 S Warner Elliot Loop, Ahwatukee, AZ) is a good doctor, but the office staff is the worst.
 
Jakob’s stolen iPod magically showed up on his desk at school today after being gone for 2 days.
 
On a positive side I have a great dinner and birthday cake. Jakob and I did buy a new cell phone for me. It is the Samsung A-900. A very cool phone. Earlier in the week I got my new MacBook: Black, 2GB RAM, 100 GB disk, I love it. It is a little bigger that the 12’ G4 PowerBook that I had, but have that little extra screen space makes a big difference. I toyed with the idea of the 15’ MacBook Pro. After care review in the Apple store, I went with the MacBook.
 
BTW - We were in a better mood that the picture shows, but there was only one picture to choose from.
Happy Birthday
