Birthday Blues
It was my birthday yesterday. I'm ugh... 32. The sad thing is, I can actually remember my Mom was she was 32, so somehow it makes me feel really old.
It was rather low-key -- not that I ever have a huge bash or anything -- but I wonder if it comes with getting older. Or maybe it's just this December in particular where everything feels so blah. What is it about this year?!?
I ended the evening with dinner at Segafredo with Louie, Mirzi, Jon and Sheila, and Jacque who was in town from Singapore for a wedding. Great food, great company, awful awful traffic!!!
Reflections at 32:
- That I'm lucky to have Louie - he's my best friend and a terrific dad to Chloe and Cole.
- That I have a great family - both Fortich and Laparan. And I never saw it more than when I was hospitalized last October for some nasty virus.
- That I have terrific friends - in all places in the world, apparently.
- That I'm blessed to be who I am and where I am.
So while I may bitch alot about life, I really and truly am blessed. :-) I'm a little worried about getting older (vain person that I am), but hey, I hear the 40 is the new 30 (or whatever crap that was). So here's to aging gracefully!
Hey Angel! Happy Birthday :-) Love that you keep your blogs updated. Did you get my text on your birthday? I also texted you a couple of times before that. Rex and I will be flying home this Thursday so I hope we can get together sometime after Jan 1st. Call you when we arrive. Love, MARA
