MILESTONE 30,000

Gad, I passed a milestone I have been awaiting for twenty seven years.

When I was teaching, I made a big TO DO about my 20,000th day on earth. I put it in the school bulletin.  I asked students to calculate my birthdate using the date and the figure 20,000.  And I pointed out that I would be retired when 30,000 came along. 

Then I forgot about it. 

30,000 days

came and went day before yesterday.  I hope it is not too late to pat myself on the back and chant "thirty thousand, thirty thousand, thirty thousand."
