A pirate looks at fifty...
🕑 Added 2019-04-03 19:07:20 +0000 UTCI told my wife, “I don’t have much choice in turning fifty, but I don’t want to be here when it happens.”
So she made plans for us to be someplace else. Cancun, specifically.
We left the boys at hone with the grandparents and my ass is currently planted in the sand, and I’m three margaritas into a very smiley day.
Above is a sketch from the flight over. I’ll probably clean it up and post a polished version later, but for now...
THANK YOU for being on this journey with me. Turning fifty sucks. But without you, it would have been truly unbearable.
Oh... stay tuned for a truly beautiful EiAD tomorrow. You’re gonna love it.

I remember that... What do you have planned for the second half?

The thing is -- 50 is only "middle-aged" if you plan to live to be 100. (Sorry!)

Happy Birthday Good Sir! Enjoy the trip!

You’re, like, half a CENTURY old! I’ll be fifty-two this year.

Sounds like you're taking a page from my hero, Jimmy Buffett. Mexican beach, margaritas, good company - now you just need the cheeseburgers and you'll be all set.

When I turned 50, I was 6 months from medical retirement and dialysis. Thanks for the ride the past few years. Got several ideas for this month’s commission.

Admittedly it is likely even better with margaritas!

Fifty is fun, past in some time ago and it's been fun so far

Just turned 50 on Monday! It is great as far as I can tell!
