heading south

i'll be out of pocket for a couple of days. it's my birthday on saturday and a friend has invited us to come play in honor of the occasion of me turning 31. a birthday party thrown just for me...i'm elated. almost takes the sting out of getting so damned old. i remember thinking 30 was ancient. but, now that i've passed ancient i still feel like an ingenue. i guess that's normal, huh?
