Happy Birthday to me!

Is it bad form to tell the whole world that it's your birthday? Oh well. Celebrate with me! Since I firmly believe that I'm only as old as I act, happy 12th birthday to me all over again...

I've been celebrating since the 10th, when I had my first party with my sister-in-law, whose birthday was the 4th. Everyone gave me either money or gift cards, so I bought a ton of books and DVDs for myself on Amazon, and I've had packages arriving every few days. The celebration will culminate next weekend when my friends come over for a bead-making party, a party shared with my dear friend Carla, whose birthday is day after tomorrow.

As for my immediate plans? I took today off of work (yay!). I have big plans - sewing, reading, watching Gilmore Girls on DVD. Tonight I'm making chicken cordon bleu for dinner, because I love it, and I haven't made it for a very long time. We'll also be having Girl Scout cookies and Rocky Road ice cream for dessert.

So happy birthday to me! Party on, people!

To heck with any protocol. It's your birthday and you should enjoy it! Party like a 12-year old. Maybe that should be our new mantra... but then again maybe I should ask a few 12 year old what they like to do in celebration. It might be too much to take... such as that new boy band - what are their names?

Remind me to take you out for coffee or ice cream or something one of these days when we are actually both in the same place at the same time!
