Birthday

Today is my brother's 45th birthday. I know what you're thinking - heck, you don't look old enough to have a brother that old!

You are correct. I do not look that old.

My brother has always been such an awesome force in my life. He pretty much was my father figure - he fixed my boo-boos, he let me sleep with him when I was little and had nightmares, he listened to me and read me endless stories. He also gave me my love of Rush and a passing appreciation for The Lord of the Rings trilogy. (To be accurate, I've only ever read - ok, skimmed, Bored of the Rings.)

I'm glad to have such a great man in my life. He's accomplished so much. You know what? I already wrote a love letter to my brother last year, and I can't top it. So just check it out already.
