Awesome bit of work
This really reminded me of a quote I once heard and committed to memory:
"Sooner or later we all discover that the important moments in life are not the advertised ones, not the birthdays, the graduations, the weddings, not the great goals achieved. The real milestones are less prepossessing. They come to the door of memory unannounced, stray dogs that amble in, sniff around a bit and simply never leave. Our lives are measured by these."
-Susan B. Anthony
Being a working stiff who's life could be about summed up in that bit of animation I can really identify with it.
