Roughly 28

December 31st, 2008 by Kateastrophe

I’m not even going to lie, the last few days haven’t exactly been the most pleasant in my life. I usually look forward to my birthday week with joyful anticipation, but as of Sunday, my balloon was deflated and I feel as though all the wind has been sucked from my sails.

Negativity? I has it.

So, today I’m roughly 28. I truly don’t have much to complain about. Family drama, some selfishness, and a lack of attentiveness by some that should not really surprise me. I just need to get over it. As of right now I’m putting on my big girl birthday panties and partying like it’s the end of 2008 – a great year.

Today I have much to be happy about. I have at least 15 Facebook birthday wishes and counting. I have about ten text messages, three instant messages and two phone calls thus far. I have a husband who NEVER forgets special days like today and how much they mean to me. There’s a new baby being born right this minute who will be a big part of my life. Oooh and look at that. Three phone calls. Four. Five. Six. Seven . . . they keep coming in and I know I’m loved. Aww and someone just delivered flowers. This might turn out to be my favorite birthday yet!

I wish you all a safe and happy New Year’s Eve. I don’t know about you but I can’t WAIT to see what 2009 brings . . .

    You deserve to be selfish - it’s your Birthday!! And you get to celebrate it TODAY and you should do it with pinache’, dammit. So strap on your sassiest stilettos, curl your lashes, spritz on some ‘come hither’ perfume and OWN IT. You have a party to attend and you are the center of attention. Negativity be damned! You are fierce and 2009 better watch out, you sauce pot. I love you!

    Happy birthday! (I totally missed the Facebook boat, so I will try to redeem myself with a comment here. :-))

    My 28th birthday wasn’t the greatest either, but my 30th totally rocked.

    My birthday is new years eve too and I gotta say, it sounds like yours wa a lot better than mine. But then again you seem to still be aging while unbelievably, I’m 29 again this year. Funny how that stuff happens isn’t it?

    Happy birthday!

    And one of your swell friends showing up on your doorstep with her whole family and surprising you whilst you were still in your towel having just hopped out of the shower in an attempt to prepare for said Birthday celebration/New Years Party.

    Good times…
