THE BACKSIDE OF 20
Because April 15 fell on a Sunday this year, celebration of Ben's birthday has been moved to Tuesday.
I couldn't find an appropriate e-card, so I got out my crayons and made my own.
Hair: orange-red
Eyes: blue-green
Lips: scarlet
Skin: apricot
Dimples: black
Personality (as represented by shirt): green
Ben is 28 now. I predict he will have the worst midlife crisis of anyone you ever knew — and that it will begin sometime this year, possibly within the week — so let's enjoy him while we can.

Thank you!
Hey, is it okay for me to use this as my profile picture?
Oh my God, my drawing is UNCANNY in its likeness of you.
Did you notice the gap between your teeth?
That picture of my picture is a little out of focus because of the lighting (low shutter speed — flash is messing things up) in here. I'll try to take a better one tomorrow!
Yes, I noticed the gap. Very lifelike.
Oh man, that is too funny.
Oops, I screwed up the picture on those two comments.
You know, a manic episode would be indistinguishable from a midlife crisis.
Huh? Did you just buy a sports car and acquire a mistress half your age? Have you been tanning? Have you started wearing a necklace and leaving more buttons on your shirt undone?
No, but I've heard that those things are symptoms of a mid-life crisis as well.
Hey, do I get this picture, or are you keeping the original?
Do you want it?
Yes! I mean, if you want to keep it, you can have it, but if not, I'll certainly take it. I'll frame it and put it near the black-and-white likeness of me in the piano room.
