Random facts for today

1. When you go to a happy hour in honor of your birthday with old work friends - and by old I mean you worked with them years ago - you feel old when you get there. I am not old by the way. This age thing just happened to me. I do not know why. Must figure that out.

2. Birthdays are significant. They mark the passing of time. They are a good measurement for growth, accomplishments, wisdom, and sadly wrinkles. What the hell is that all about anyway? Seriously.

3. All of my friends who have turned 30 have very proudly told me this is the age where you mellow out and stop caring about all the little things in life that were once devastating and so dramatic. I find myself trying to exercise "thirties" maturity. I'm going to let you in on a secret though - sometimes I still feel like acting like a 4 year old and saying "because I want it that way" and wishing that would just be enough for everyone involved. Not very mature huh? Yeah I know. Like I said I'm practicing. One day I'll be good at this.

4. I saw that woman today that I heard had the affair with the married guy. Couldn't even get close for fear of a slip of the tongue. Funny that's exactly what happened to her! :)

So this weekend, we are having NAD round two. NAD stands for National Amber Day. It's a glorious round of days dedicated to me. Can you tell I like attention? I'm a nurturer by nature, so I like the part when people dote on me for long periods of time. NAD is a fun day. Mostly because it's a good excuse to get together with friends and family and enjoy the moment. We are going to do some fun stuff. Maybe you'll get lucky and I will blog about it and **** maybe post pictures!!!! :)

Cheers!
