Actually, there's no party, and I'm not upset, but tomorrow is my birthday, so here's a little ramble. Feel free to ignore it...
I just have the weirdest feeling of *non*feeling about my b-day, this year. Usually, there's either anticipation or dread as it approaches(more dread as I get closer to fourty!). But, this year, I don't know, it's not really apathy. It's like something unimportant that I forgot about, like, "oh right...it's my birthday this week...boy... January and February went fast this year...".
Okay, that's all, I guess I just needed to attempt some self expression. Thanx ya'll! CarolAnn

I wish we could throw you a psychobabble party. Since posting is the closest to it, please have a happy birthday and know that many here are thinking of you.

Pretend we went back to the restaurant where we would have taken Phil out for a celebratory dinner when he got his new job.

i'll bring the balloons!noa is right, there are way too many shoulds attatched to birthdays (and all holidays). all those idealistic shoulds are pretty exhausting. the only thing you SHOULD do is listen to your heart and accept your feelings.
and i certainly wish you a happy birthday full of things good for you---i'll be sending colorful and peaceful thoughts your way!lots of birthday goodness,
juniper
