54...much like 53, actually.

This was a good day. Got laundry done, bought lunch for cipherpunk and Mark at the Red Robin up in Dulles Town Center, which was a good time with good food and good friends. cipherpunk handed me the 100 rounds of ammo for Masha he'd picked up at the gun show, along with two coupons for free range time at Blue Ridge Arsenal, which I will have to use soon since I haven't seen the inside of a range in far too long. Lots of people wished me a happy birthday on Facebook as well, which was nice.

Best of all, the new size 52 tactical pants arrived from Amazon and fit just fine. Nice to be wearing something with a waist size smaller than my age for a change.
