41 years ago tomorrow morning, at 9:54 AM, I was born unto this world. As such, I’m taking a 3-day weekend this week, and upon changing my Facebook profile picture to “Baby Jesse,” I declare that the Weekend of the Jesse has begun.

To me, it’s less about celebrating my birthday and more about making this MY day. I have so many hobbies that I treasure my time away from work. This weekend I aim to dip back into the archives of my childhood and remember my former glory. Organize some digital photos and files. Scan in some old photos, digitize some old tapes. Buy some new music. Add in some good food for good measure, maybe a trip to the Drive-In or the movies with the family this weekend, and I’ll have a blast.
