My birthday. Please hold your applause. Every year on my birthday I wake up and wonder who will remember me today. To my surprise I already had text messages from facebook friends(of course facebook reminds people), I had text messages and even an email from friends. Why the wonder, well growing up my mother never celbrated my birthday on my birthday. Not once. Then after I left the nest she has never bothered to call to say Happy Birthday. I have a complex and I dread the disappointment that waits for me on my birthday. When Damian got up he gave me a homemade card to wish me a happy birthday and a big hug. James gave me a kiss and told me he is hungy. I wonder what the day will bring. I need to take a math test so I don't have to do it this weekend, and make Damian do various forms of schoolwork. It is a new day, but the same as the other days. I feel no different, no older, or wiser. In fact I feel slightly unnerved by my general lack of information especially now that I am in college, a bit disappointed because I have stopped losing weight after 9 pounds two months ago, and a little stuck since Rob took the car today and I have no desire to brush up on my manual driving skills to use his truck. As for older well I still like a girl, although I am a woman with children and wrinkles. I just wish the lower half of my body would start to shrink so that I could pretend to look like I feel.
Today is a song, a blessing from above, a gift and not just for me. So for my birthday all I ask is that each of you have a beautiful day, kick up your heels, dance, eat, drink and be merry. GO out for one night and make a fool out of your self, laugh and think of me. Be blessed.
