Birthday blues

Its all about perspective. As my birthday rolled around, i became somber and subdued. Perhaps it was the rain, or 6th sense. Went into work as usual. Later in the day, had lunch with Renee and Yun. As the afternoon came and went, i became more reflective. What have I done this year? What am I most proud of ? I came to the realization that having Kim in my life is what gives me most pleasure. For my birthday she gave me framed pix of Menage a Trois, bouquet of balloons, CD of love songs she made for me, and a card of 101 whys she loves me.

Last weekend was the company holidays; Thuy and Tom, Rachael, Liz, Kim and I went. We arrived at AT&T Park around 8 and left around 11pm. Being together to enjoy the event.

Recalling the past year: Breaking up with San after making Chicken Feet Movie, finding Kim at Dyke March, dating her, going out many adventurous dates with her. Robin left my life but Liz came in. Colleen, Jaynie, Nikki and Diane are more present. Penny is ever more my friend than neighbor. Of course my online highschool friends on FB.

Concerts and trips this past year include UB40, Janet Jackson, Madonna, Bridge Benefits with Sarah McLachlan and Norah Jones, Rachael Yamagata & Meiko, Bryan Adams, and now Sarah Brightman. For my 6 week Sabbatical I traveled to Costa Rica with Yuns family and to Cancun with Kim. While on Sabbatical I went to visit Tiger and Ellen also.

Now its the end of the year, nestled in the warmth of love of family and friends, reflective yet looking forward to what will come.
