These are random musings of my life journey, the people, animals, places, and events which have woven, and continue to weave, a tapestry that is me. We all know there is no real destination, only the ongoing experiences which blend together, creating the trail. Each step gives a glimpse of what is to come, without allowing me to see the end result. It is exciting. I have a home base that is mine, that gives me a place to rest. This is it. This is where my heart is, no matter where I journey...................

Not that I'm counting .....

.... but ....

Today I am 2/3 of a century old!

A friend pointed out to me recently, when  wished hm a Happy Birthday, that in a few months, he would be exactly 2/3 of a century old. So I started counting, and I figured out that TODAY IS MY AUSPICIOUS DAY!!!

Wooooo Hooooooooo!!

    I got the 66 + 66 days as well. I'll have to remember that and wish Craig a Happy 2/3rds a century in a couple of months!

    He has a friend that is exactly six months older than he and they always call each other and wish each other half birthdays!

    Well, it is a key milestone anyway. Congratulations on reaching it, and on being able to do the math. Both are an accomplishment.

    I guess I have that to look forward to in a few months.

    LOL! Moni, I guess if they aren't interested enough to follow the link and read this, they must not be TRUE friends! Thanks!

    Cyndi, are you a math teacher, perhaps? Any way you look at it, it come out to a partial day, and I didn't carry it to the hours! I actually divided the year (365) by 1/3 and figured it from there, and I don't remember whether it was 66 or 67.

    Merikay, I'm not sure your math formula is correct. 365 ÷ 3 = 121.66666666667 X 2 = 243.33333333333, so you would count 243 days from his birthday. That is 66 years, or 2/3 century minus one year, then add 2/3 of the year to make it exactly 2/3 of the century. Does that make sense?

    I like the birthday game Craig and his friend play!

    Happy 2/3 century (give or take a day or so). Of course to make it really accurate, you'd have to take your birth time into account too. :p -s-

    Hey...you are looking great in your facebook picture (which I see on your sidebar). €he cowboy hat and lipstick...hubba hubba...I think you could easily attract a 2/5 of a century year old man.
