Just in a really rotten place today, feeling kicked in the teeth. Nothing is specifically wrong, but certainly nothing is "right" either.

My best friend died in March, no replacement daily buddy yet. Don't even really have any candidates. So no one to talk with about the daily ups & downs of live.

My birthday is this coming Sunday, so I asked a friend of mine to invite 2 other friends (gave her a list of 6) and make reservations for dinner Saturday night. She waited late until everyone was already busy and dinner is Thursday night.

I don't want dinner Thursday, it's the wrong day and I don't feel like being adult about it, darn it! cry

And of course, when one thing is off, everything seems to go off. Ugh. No point in making a list here, y'all know how it works. Truthfully, not even sure why I'm posting.

Birthdays are always good for kicking one in the teeth.

My wife and I have birthdays that are about 3 weeks apart, and for expediency's sake, we celebrate them both somewhere in the middle. Thus this Friday we're going out to our favorite restaurant, which really isn't our favourite restaurant, but is the ONLY restaurant which has at least one or two things on the menu that every one of our guests can eat. That said, the beer is cold and plentiful, so I have that going for me.

No real reason for my reply either, but I wanted to acknowledge your yawp.

And wish you a happy early birthday.

Happy Birthday coming up Lynnwood and also to F27 and Mrs. F27. I hope everybody has a good time on their birthdays.

If you don't feel like being an adult Lynnwood, then don't. This should be your special day.

I never cared much about my birthdays until some friends of mine started acknowledging them. One of my friends has a birthday two days after mine so we meet in the middle also. I must admit, it is fun. And I do like to get the presents and shop for the other person when I can afford it. Sometimes I start getting things early. I love to give gifts.

Take care you two.

Hugs, Karen...

Thanks Karen! I like this time of year - those few weeks that Mrs. F27 is three whole years older than me.

She's such a cougar. ;-)

Thanks, I think I just needed someone to say I don't have to be an adult *somewhere* in my life. Everything has just gotten too darn serious!

Also leaving for a beach trip Monday, so you'd think that would lift my spirits, but no...

Happy Birthday, F27 & Mrs Cougar!!! lol

I send true wishes of happiness to you all for your birthdays.

However, I do not celebrate mine, family rarely took notice of it and that is how it went most of my life. So, I don't understand the joy.

Lynnwood: so sorry for the loss of your friend.
However, I want to point out what a blessing that relationship was. Rare indeed is the friend that we can talk to everyday about our concerns and happiness.

Beware of find another, caution, I suppose you know that.

We are here for you and love you.

Peace
Trina
