Phiiiiiiiillllll!
Yes, it’s that time of year again where I wish my good buddy Phil, the happiest of birthdays.
It’s also the time of year that I make a feeble attempt to convince my good buddy to move back to Nap Town, The Circle City, the home of the Brickyard….Indianapolis.
See Phil bolted from the fine state of Indiana soon after graduation from PT school. Seems he felt it necessary to spread his wings and become the guy he wanted to be.
It worked (as much as I hate to admit it…was a great move on his part).
Phil has become an outstanding professional as well as a great man. He also not too long ago married just the right gal, Julie (Uh, you kids do actually live in the same city now? I also like the burgundy wall in the living room :)) .
Could he have become the man he is by staying behind with the rest of us?
Yeah, but it wouldn’t make as good a story now would it. Where’s the legacy if you don’t take the calculated risks?
Congrats on another degree (how many is that now?), keep running (you ran the Indy Mini-Marathon in a couple hours, right? I cover the same distance in about 15 minutes because I take a car like all the other normal human beings), and hopefully we’ll see you soon.
For all of us in Indy, Happy Birthday.
Later
P.S. So, uh, Phil, when you think you might be moving back to Indy?
