26 years ago they asked me “where will you be in 10 years?” and I made up something like this “I’ll be moving into the corner office wearing the newest three-piece suit in my huge wardrobe and handing out cigars that say ‘it’s a boy’” But 10 years later I was a bike messenger and just got into grad school.  I had no suits and I only wore cutoff shorts and Sidis with no socks. I never went to grad school. I never made it to the corner office except to get a stamp on the messenger slip and then I got back outside and back on my bike for ten more years. 

Now     here      today     I’m handing out cigars that say “it’s a boy”  because it is.

i looked in my house for my thesaurus and couldnt find it for more words synonymous to congratulations. today me an' the boy went for our first mtn bike ride. it was awesome, he ate shit, and it was great to say it 'its ok riding your bike sometimes you get hurt, look at this scar.'
