How old am I now...?
Today I am 29. I'm not totally thrilled with that number. Actually, it's more of what comes after 29 that I'm a little freaked about. My mom called me bright and early to wish me a happy birthday and asked if I felt another year older. My answer was "hell yeah." Right now I'm failing miserably at pretending that I don't have a pretty bad cold. No one should be sick on their birthday...never mind sick and at work. I can't breathe really at all, so I haven't much in the way of decent sleep for the past few nights. That coupled with a 4:30 am alarm can really make a person feel a whole lot older than they are.
I'm trying not to sound too depressed about stuff. Because really, besides the cold and being tired stuff...I'm actually having a good day. It's the middle of February and it's almost 55 degrees...can't be upset by that. It's also VERY quiet at work and may be able to sneak out a little early. My husband is taking me out to dinner tonight and about every 1/2 hour so far, some one calls or e-mails with birthday wishes. Plus, it's a long weekend coming up due to President's day. I usually get one of those right around my birthday. If it falls right, I even get the day off. Can't complain about that. Being a Thursday, we are not going to do anything big tonight. Just dinner, I think. But Saturday, my husband invited a bunch of people over for birthday cake. It should be fun, but I have a whole lot of cleaning to do before then. We have a little cat hair build up problem happening.
