Birthday, Anniversary, Anniversary

Well, today is my birthday. Woo hoo! Thanks Valentin for the humorous birthday wishes. :) Aside from being my birthday, today is also the two-year anniversary of my quitting smoking. Yep, exactly two years ago to the day I quit, cold turkey...and I never looked back!

But on a sad note, today is also the one-year anniversary of Steve Irwin's untimely death. May we always remember the joy and energy his love of wildlife brought to so many. Few naturalists have had such a strong and wonderful impact on the world as he did. He is certainly missed.

Steve Irwin, The Crocodile Hunter
February 22, 1962 - September 4, 2006

According to BBC News, Irwin's widow Terri and their two children, Bindi and Bob, will spend the first anniversary of his death in private. The family plans to celebrate his life and achievements on "Steve Irwin Day", which will be held on November 15th.
