Not the same thrill that it used to be, not like those childhood birthdays that seemed so important, another step towards the goal, towards being a grown up. After one has been a grown up for some time, the thrill of birthdays falls off precipitously.
Some friends took me for a nice lunch at MK Suki Restaurant. A Japanese company, selling an essentially Chinese menu, in Thailand, always fun. They brought a cake too, with candles. Take a look, six and four candles, for 64! We had a good time.
Of course I shouldn't complain, because at 64 another birthday above ground, and without any medical problems to speak of, is a wonderful thing.
