33 years old today and let's recap: fabulously wealthy, dating a supermodel -- wait, that's Leonardo DiCaprio. Or Tom Brady. Or.
Seriously, though, it's my birthday today. No idea on the time of day I was born but at some point I'll complete my thirty-third trip around a star. And that's kind of cool.

Happy Birthday, Paul! I've just found your blog and I check it every day. It's so nice to keep up with you. We should catch up next time I'm in Chattanooga (probably in a couple weeks)
More than kind of cool, I'd say. Have a terrific birthday!
Happy Birthday, I wouldn't have pegged you for a day over 29.
I'm interrupting this disgustingly orgiastic birthday I'm having over at my place (translation: not so much) to say thanks, y'all. I appreciate the well wishes.

Happy Birthday! May 33 be better for you than it was for Jesus.
I'm late to the party, but also wishing you a happy (now belated) birthday. Or, since it is spring, Hoppy Birdday to ewe. (I stole that off a greeting card).
Also late to the party.
Still: Happy 33!
