On August 2, I posted an entry on my New Shoes. I got a few comments in SL about them and a few suggestions where I could find similar types. So this morning, while I was waiting for a client meeting to start, I checked out Happy Bivouac on Koreshan.

August 1 was my 46th birthday. 46?!? Jeez, if I had known that I would live this long I would have taken better care of myself. Yet, I found myself not really thinking about getting older. Maybe I am just in denial, or maybe I have come to terms with my [...]
