nate dog and rohn

received a postcard from nate this week. i love postcards. love receiving them. love sending them.

this one was a follow up to the all too short visit nate had last weekend. the picture was taken last summer at uncle kelly’s fave, the bagel and deli in oxford, over the sulli ash wedding weekend. what a great time. we’re sweet dudes.

i’m not a fan of birthdays. please ignore mine.

Posted by juplife on April 27, 2008

when talking with annie the other day, i was reminded of a scary thought: my birthday is fast approaching. believe it or not, i don’t always crave the spotlight. this is one of those days that i try hardest to avoid it. that’s why it is pretty much the only piece of information about me not available online.

since many people have the misguided idea of buying me a gift each year, i figured i’d put a list of my needs and wants together so they get me something i actually use. after all, the most important thing to keep in mind when buying something for me is to make sure it’s practical. if i won’t use it, i won’t like it. try not to stray from the list.

needs

  • contacts - i’m on my last pair
  • running shoes - i have too many miles on my current pair
  • gym shorts - an ND pair would do just fine
  • khaki shorts

wants

  • glasses - i might be ready to return to glasses. my contacts could use a break
  • ipod - amazingly i don’t have one already. would be a waste without an itrip or arm strap for running
  • dress shirts - polos or button downs

do not buy me a t-shirt. i make them for a living for cripes sakes. i’m out of room in my dresser.

thanks.
