Happy Birthday to...

By the time I turned 31, I have earned a doctorate. I travelled to France and Spain by myself. I bought my own car. I graduated six classes of first year students. I delivered a keynote address at a college graduation that wasn't my own. I've been a bridesmaid over 5 times. I directed 3 shows onstage. I've written 5. I wrote a 185 page dissertation. I fell in love, I fell out of love, I fell in love..you get the point. I've met some wonderful people, and I've met a lot of assholes. Even dated some! I've established myself professionally. I'm teaching at a major university. I'm mentoring students now. People call me Dr. Voodoo. Go figure. I've only been skunk drunk three times. Maybe four. Okay, maybe five. I managed through all of this, to find myself and come to know who I truly am. And I've only just begun.

Happy birthday to me,
Voodoo
