Happy Birthday to ME!

Well, I've reached a pinnacle in my life, turning a new page, opening a new chapter, one more nail in my coffin, a benchmark, another day older, whatever you want to call it, I'M 30!

I've been keeping a brown paper bag nearby all day because I'm having strong tendancies toward hyper-ventilating today.

30 seems a bit old, but it doesn't really feel that old. I feel like I'm 20 still. Everyone keeps telling me the thirties are the best time of one's life. We'll see . . . !

So far, I've gotten some fancy shmancy designer jeans which I love and want to wear everyday, I've gone out to dinner to the Melting Pot and Ari took me for sushi today at lunch. My children have drawn pics and I'm still waiting for the Baskin Robbins ice cream cake! : ) (Ben says he hasn't forgotten yet!) And, I've heard from nearly all my family today. It's been a good day.

Happy Birthday. I still have another year before I turn 30. I feel that it is just a number and you are as old as you think you are. I think that you will love being thirty I just look at it as another day. Happy Birthday.

I was thinking about you the other day. I knew your b-day was in September but couldn't remember which day. Happy 30th! You're handling it much better than I am. I've just gone into denial. Please tell me it is the best time of your life and give me something to look forward to.
