HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME

It's August 1, 2006, so I'm officially 40. Third straight castle party in a row was good; this time Andy & Sarah made a terrific raost for the whole gang, then we had birthday cake and champagne. I managed to blow out two candles wiht my nose; I'll post that later. I lasted until about 3am.

That is Mary Kaye and Anne pictured, sending me their birthday wishes.

This morning we are off to Dromoland Castle for a 12-person scramble. My team will crush all competitors, because I make the rules on MY SPECIAL DAY.

O, let me be the first blogger-type to say happy birthday here. I'm online at cafe in Ennis. Hope the scramble is going well; I possibly should have joined you. I chauffeured three women to town this morning to "see the sights" and maybe shop "a little". That should have been my first warning. There were at least four more women waiting at Dunne's when we got here. I don't like the looks of this, I thought. I immediately started to look for a chance to make my break when Kelly and Andrea looked the other way. It wasn't as hard as I thought; all I had to do was find a shoe store. As soon as they were distracted, I was on the move. Down a dark alley, up five flights of stairs, through a building that might once have housed a brothel, across two rooftops, hitch a ride on the top of a lorry, and boom, I'm an anonymous geek again. I don't think anybody saw. So here I am, hoping GMail comes back online soon. See you back at the castle...if I get out alive. Gotta go find a Guinness now. Good luck to Team Mort today.

Happy birthday, Matt. Your baby book says one push was all it took--I would think so, being two weeks late and all. I wrote that you arrived " little, red, squirmy and crying." And here you are, 40 years later, big, tan, golfing and...crying? Hope not. Wishing you a beautiful day in Ireland. See you soon. Much love to you...
