Birthdays

I do not fancy myself as the real sentimental type. Today I turned 42. I do not care to make a big deal of it. No big parties, just want to have some family and friends around. The family could not be with me for my birthday this year. You see, I have been in Michigan for the last 19 days. That is alright though, because I have made some new friends. The staff at the hotel that I have been staying at is absolutely terrific. So if you are in the Detroit Michigan area and are looking for a nice place you might want to try the Courtyard Marriott in Utica, MI. I came back from the Air Force Base to find balloons and a cake waiting for me in my room. Even though my family was not here this made a big difference.

While I am on the subject of birthdays, even though I was born 42 years ago this is actually my 43rd birthday. You see no one ever counts the day they were born. Today is the 42nd anniversary of my birth. I am actually now starting my 43rd year. I hope this makes no sense to you. I went to go see Friday the 13th movie. It was good. I would see it again because I like a good scare. So they have found a way to bring Jason back again. The Jason movies were movies I grew up with. I will not spoil it for anyone, however I wish they had built up the character line for Jason Vorhees a little more. It would have been a welcome addition. To get a glimpse into his psyche. Why is he so psychotic? What is his motivation? Does he even have one?

I will sign off now and leave everyone to their devices. Before I do though I want to say thank you to the staff at the Courtyard Marriott. Thanks Don, Chris, Kim, Felicia, Joanne, The cook whose name I never did get, The housekeeping staff (you all did a wonderful job), James and if I missed your name anyone Thank You all so much for making my stay wonderful. Don, I know you are following my blog, wish Kathy well for me in her recovery from surgery.
