I'm 29 today.
I feel good.
I am having the best vacation here in San Diego, my hometown. The holiday was good, spent it with family and friends.
Today is going to be big also, many different people from my life are coming to hang out today and finally I will be mixing fruit. I'm not in charge of the festivites, though, and that is proving to be hard. I'm not used to letting go of the riegns of my life, but I got Lencho handling it and he's doing fantastic. I think that he hacked into my Myspace and somehow took a gander onto my blackerry. I'm sitting in a nice suite here in downtown that I got for myself. I think this will be a new tradition for me, I checked in last night and had a nice quiet evening, fell asleep really early and woke to have a HUGE breakfast via room service. It's a beautiful day and I'm going to go run around with Lencho for a bit before preparing for my dinner, in who knows where.
I'm 29 today.
I am lucky.
I thank the skies every day for my life.
I've been a dancer, a singer, an actor, a poet, a muppet, a retail slut! I've been a carnie, a smoothie maker, a customer service hag, a sea world slave! I've been a student, a son, a sister, a daughter, a brother, a friend, an enemy, a lover. I've been a fighter, a winner, a loser, a quitter, a longer haired freak! I've been sad, glad, happy and desperate. I've been an uncle, a wife, a husband and a grandson. I've been a nephew, a cousin, a witch, a shaman, a drama queen and everything in between.
I've been that and done A LOT more in my 29 years.
Don't get me wrong, I've had to work hard to get where I am today, which still isn't much, but if you where to tell 19 year old Jose what kind of life he would be having, he would have popped his gum at you, then flicked his cigaretter your way and told you "Yeah, right! I'm goin to be on Broadway!" And, well, I've sort of been there, I walked past it all the time in New York.
I'm home.
And it feels nice.
Thanks to everyone for my birthday wishes!!
I got one more year to accomplish everything on my list...
DF.
