How I got 36 hours in a Day!

How lucky am I that I got 36 hours in a day?

Quite lucky I must say, because I got a lot accomplished today.

"But how?", I 'm sure you are asking yourself.

It all started when my friend from the far-east first wished me Happy Birthday. My birthday is today, June 10, but this was just after noon on Tuesday, June 9. Well, the math is kinda simple. My friend lives in Singapore where it was already past 1200 AM on June 10 and so the wish was legitimate. And that is when it hit me that somewhere in the world, it is 12 AM even when it is only 12 Noon in the USA.

And after all it was my Birthday. So I decided to make every minute from that point on memorable, till my day actually ended at 12 midnight EST on June 10, 2009. And for those who are weak in math, that is a full 36 hours !!!

30 of those 36 are already past and I have had a great time indeed, every minute of the way. And I am sitting on my couch trying to plan the next six and how I can get the best out of them, while my wife is making cupcakes and my son has just made his 3rd birthday card for me.

How lucky am I, for having been given 36 hours in a day? Especially given that it is my 36th Birthday !!!
