I've noticed I start these things with "So" a lot. So, the Fourth was interesting. Some people that usually irritate, didn't so that that was nice. I almost lost an eye and my love of fireworks has diminished greatly. All in a days work, I suppose. The problem is am I getting old? The bodily risk taking has gone down a lot in my life. Not that it was super high to begin with, but I think I've crossed a big adult threshhold in that I actually am concerned about maiming myself. Is this a big step? It didn't feel any different when I turned 30, but it seems like ever since then I have been different. The priorities have changed in my life. It is a strange time indeed to be Jason.
