Hyperventilating as I type the numbers 3 and 0 to mean I’m thirty freakin’ years old. Oooh, now I’m dizzy and need to put my head between my legs. Adios youth, howdy death! ---

Today and for one day only, I’m exactly 13,369. It took me terribly long to figure out… about 15 seconds thanks to Oracle’s™ to\_date function 🙂 You can get my average age by dividing by 365… (saving the trouble: 36). You can figure out what my birthday is if you really want to. (By the above days, you _can_ figure it out) ---
