Day 2

So I'm back. Don't have a lot to say today. It' my birthday. I'm officially 27!! I'm ok with this birthday. 26 was hard, really hard. I don't normally say I'm a day older than I am. Not a year older until the day (did that make any sense?). This year, I've been saying that I'm 27 for a few months already. I guess I have accepted that I'm getting old.

I didn't do anything special today. I just worked and grocery shopped. Last night, my 2 closest friends took me for dinner. It was lovely!! The servers even sang "Happy birthday" all loud and obnoxious like. Great food. Not great on the hips, stomach or face though. On Saturday a whole bundle of my friends and I are going out to party. We'll be getting down with our bad selves dancing and such. Good times!

So I sit here and try to rememeber my most memorable birthdays.

3rd - I have a vivid memory of marching into the kitchen and saying "I'm three today" all proud and excited. Could be a dream though.

7th - Went to my first birthday party a McDs. Had been to many other birthday parties at McDs for other kids. This was my first!! Loved it, ofcourse. I remember that the only friend I invited that wasn't family didn't come. Ummm, I think she was my only friend. Looking back I think this friendship was one sided.

12th - My two best friends threw me a mini surprise party in the basement of my house. It was cool. We had C&C Music Factory cranked with confetti and cake. Good times.

15th - Here, at this stage in life I had become friends with a girl who shared the day with me. A friend of ours threw us a party in his field. My first birthday party held in a field.....woo hooo!! You can imagine what happened. Kids ranging from 15-19, drunk and silly.

16th - I have no idea! Got my license to drive is all.

17th - The new girl in town threw me a party at her grandparents. Pool table and beer. What more could we ask for? We decided to leave this party and crash another. The party we crashed was hosted by the same friend that hosted my 15th birthday party. I was asked to leave. I was crushed. Oh well, movin on...

18th - Sweet!! Now I was legal to drink and smoke. The things that were important to us at 18. My boyfriend at the time threw my a keg party. Charged everyone 10 bucks for a night of super fun times. I don't remember much about that party except that there was a lot of beer left.

19th - I had suffered a huge loss this year. One my closest friends at the time threw me a party in his field. It was cold and rained all night. We still were up until dawn shivering and slurring our words.

23rd - My boyfriend at the time made a fantastic dinner and surprised me with this beautiful couch I had been pining for. Amazing day!! Looking back, wasn't that great. He was cheating on me. Again, movin on...

24th - My first birthday in four years that I'm single. Partied in my home town on Friday and at a bar in the city Saturday. One of my best birthdays ever!! Nothing significant happened but it was the best.

26th - This one was so memorable. I cannot remember a damn thing about it. Nothing. Squat! Zip! Was I at work?? I have no idea!!

My plans are to make this one memorable too. Who knows what could possibly happen on Saturday. Lots of dancing I presume. I guess we'll see.
