10 years later....

Back in the proto days of the Internet, when the only people writing on here were the serious geeks and freaks (myself included), I wrote the occasional blog-style article on my personal website. One of them was about turning 26, and how weird and old it made me feel.

Of course reading this article having just turned 36 makes me feel even weirder and older. And embarrassed. (and the rest of my old personal website isn't much better. I can't quite bring myself to write to my old host to take it down, even though I lost access to make updates years ago). I feel especially blushy about feeing old at *26* - honestly!

Now I am at that age where I tell people how old I am, and they gasp - "I wouldn't have guessed". This means two things - one good (I can still pass for young-ish and foolish) and one not so good (36 is a bit long in the tooth for someone who works in the web industry and wears "Kittens for Obama" t-shirts to work.) Oh well.

So what have I learned in the last 10 years? I think I'm still figuring that one out. The only thing I can say for sure is that the thing about always wearing sunscreen is right.
