birthday: march 2

goal: the best 28th (ugh, that's old!) birthday ever

birthday checklist: renew license; pretend nothing's special as i'm doing school visits since i don't really want to make a big deal out of it there, if you know what i mean; buy cello's donuts for OLA team 6; go to 6pm mass; have pizza with wilma.

no boyfriend. no family. no friends, well, except wilma, the roommate.

i've made a big deal out of it in the past. in my heart, i want the big happy birthday blow-out: cake, flowers, balloons, presents, friends, family, and significant others plus phone calls from people you love but are away. but reality tells me to keep the expectations down.

and who knows. after four years of making a big deal out of my birthday, maybe this year, i'm finally going to get it right.
