I had this amazing blog post all done up full with a very comprehensive telling of the first 30 years of my life and how it has all gone wrong. Full with bashing ex-girlfriends, current friends and of course family.
You all just had to ruin it with the throwing of a surprise party for my 30th birthday. Now i feel compelled to wash your balls a bit......
I think my dad put it best. He said, "You can tell who a quality person is by the people they choose to surround themselves with. And you have a bunch of amazing friends." Clearly he hasn't met Simon, what an a-hole!
But in all seriousness. I couldn't think of a better, and some will say gayer, way of kicking off the new look of the blog by just telling all of you how much the last few weeks have meant to me. I'm not one to want to draw a lot of attention to myself or be the main focus of conversation, that is why we have Ethan after all. But everyone wants to feel appreciated as a friend and all of you couldn't have done a better job of showing me you care by what you have done since my actual b-day on May 1st.
So without further delay, here is a list of everyone I could possibly think of who A might read this blog and B who made me feel all gay inside when it came to my b-day. Let the ball washing begin(side note: you don't have to be a guy to be ball washed. It's a metaphor and in this instance most the woman have bigger balls to be washed than any of the boys).
Parents - They don't read my blog, they don't know about the blog. But I would feel like I was doing a disservice if I didn't start this off with expressing how much they mean to me and have molded me into the gay, lame, star wars shirt wearing, Simpson pajamas wearing , eye candy, that I am today. They are truly the two most generous people I have ever met.
Ethan, Taylor, Justin, Eric, Playa - What can I say. It's truly hard for me to picture any fun moments in my life without one or all of you involved in one way or another. I couldn't think of a better group of guys to just get verbally abused from on a daily basis.
Adri, Leslie, Katie - To put up with not only your boys but also the lifetime 3rd wheel in me is already enough to earn you a prize. But everything you guys have done these past few weeks is something I won't forget. Ethan and Taylor are lucky to have you guys. Katie you might be the nicest person in the world. Its borderline creepy how nice you are, wouldn't hurt to drop an F bomb now and again....
Simon, Carrie, Kyle, Sarah, Heidi, Morgan, Tim, Ethan, Annie, Jason, Katie, Alex, Carrie - Some I haven't known long, some I have known forever and lost touch with. But all of you are special people to me and it was really great for me to see you at the party. I love you all. Except Simon, what an a-hole!
Everyone else - blah blah ball wash blah blah.
My overall point is just THANK YOU. I can't really express it enough. I feel blessed to have you all in my life. I feel blessed to share past, current and future fun with you. I truly feel that 30-40 is going to be even more fun than 20-30.

wow.. i got a-hole twice!! and singled out as the a hole... i see how this is. I hereby boycott this blog.
actually, let me retract that... I take this as a great compliment. I embrace this blog.
My balls feel fantastic. Thank you, my armenian cuddlebear.
1) i had a great time at all of your birthday celebrations; medieval was great, getting the inside scoop from the Kazarian family at the surprise party was fabulous and specifically the fact that you had more than one birthday celebration made my heart all warm and full of joy, particularly because of all of the abuse i got for my birthday celebrations this year :)
2) i think i might have lost my title as nicest person in the world with the whole baskin robbins fiasco
3) I dont think you will be hearing any f-bombs from me any time soon but i wouldnt mind dropping a few S-of-a-Bs the next time someone blindsides me by finding it appropriate to tell their grandmother we are going to have sex
you don't even thank my wife? she comes out all the way from kentucky to see you, on the heels of your birthday ruining my birthday and you can't even take the time to thank her? if she reads this blog and sees that her name is unmentioned, the whole "move-to-california-to-be-with-you" thing could be over. i suggest you make up for it by writing an entire blog dedicated to heidi: "the perfect wife"
Hey Brian,
I think you should have another birthday party, five wasn't quite enough this year...
