Still Alive, Thirty Five

November 15, 2011 by Tesh

I turned 35 today. As I noted over on Google+, this means I’m officially eligible to be President of the United States.

I’m not sure if that’s scary or a simple answer to the question of who to write in on the ballot. Maybe it’s both.

Whatever the case, my extended family gave me cash for my birthday (so much easier), so I ordered a couple pounds of dice from Amazon. I should have the Zomblobs! design in playtest form by the time they get here. (And I’ll be looking for beta testers, incidentally, if anyone is interested in printing out some PDF files and playing along.)

Oh, and here, have a song to celebrate!

Happy Birthday!

I remember when I turned 35. Sort of. Bill Clinton was still president and I was waiting for Diablo II to finally come out.

Unofficially, you’re still too young.

Happy birthday.

Happy Birthday!

I’d vote for you. You couldn’t be any worse than the last series of choices!

Happy birthday, grandpa .

(like I’m not a year away myself. Maybe I should run for president next year!)

Happy Birthday! Got a few years to go before I get there so I get to feel young (for now)!

Happy birthday! I hadn’t considered the whole presidential aspect, but I’ve been eligible for two years already. hmmmm.

Thanks, everyone! Usually I don’t bother to call attention to my birthday, but with all the election hype here in the ‘States, it struck me as odd that I could theoretically throw my hat in the ring. Of course, I’m unelectable, and I don’t want the job anyway… but I couldn’t help but wonder what a gamer President would be like.

Probably have us all killing ten rats for a living.

You aren’t as old as I thought you were… younger than I had expected. But I do think we tend to apply our selves & experiences to the unknown. I am often surprised to learn that someone isn’t my age.

I hope you enjoyed your 35th birthday and are lucky enough to eke out an extended celebration. Happy Birthday Triple T!

Now, I’m off to see about circling you.

Well, if it’s any consolation, my hair thinks I’m older, and has for a decade or so now. That’s why it’s AWOL.

If you speak of G+, I’m Tesh TishToshTesh over there. At least, until the Google vultures decide to cull me for RealID dodging.
