Twenty Four!


Day Twenty Four:  We’re getting older but we’re still crazy

Well my friends, today is my birthday.  And it has been really nice.  I have this thing about people who wish me happy birthday, and the fact that I actually could not care less if you posted “hbd” on my facebook wall, as long as the people who mean the most to me acknowledge it then I am okay.  All of those people sent me a message before one am this morning, so, I think we’ve got all the bases covered for the time being.

Needless to say the most exciting part of my day was finishing Brave at midnight with Judith or munching on the Mr.Big chocolate bar all day (nutritious lunch for any occaision!) but hey, it’s my birthday, if I don’t deserve chocolate today than when can I eat it without feeling guilty?  You don’t gain weight on your birthday, that’s just common sense.

This is when my day actually starts, after the classes are done and before I have to go home for tomorrow.  I don’t think I will write until late tomorrow night, just a warning, as I can’t imagine my hands will stop shaking until my sister tucks me in.  Bringing my light through today as just a time for me, not to think of all the negativity (although I have found myself doing so when it is due) but I am trying to be…cheerful, at least.  It is my birthday after all.

I hope to have a solid, very relaxed evening with my good friends here in Guelph.  Dinner (if they have steak and ale pie it’s already great) and then off for drinks, it should just be nice.  This weekend I am hoping to see my good friends from home as well, but only time will tell if there is time for that.  For now, I’m focused on the moment.  That’s how I’ve been getting through a lot lately:  swinging from this moment to the next and it has been working, mostly.

I really must go and pack and do my makeup and such, I don’t really have a lot of time today to do anything but keep going.  Must keep going.

Happy Birthday, me!
