It will be what it will be...

Tomorrow I celebrate my 35th birthday. My big adventure of the day will be a CT scan with some nasty contrast. I'll then come home to bake my birthday cake. My gifts are a new tool box and Tangled on Blu-Ray. Both things I wanted so I'm excited about them, but the fact that I already have them makes them less exciting. Still fun, but not earth shattering special.

Birthdays just aren't the same as when we were kids, are they. Especially if they fall in the middle of the week and aren't a milestone. At least they aren't when you are single. Can't speak for the married folks out there. No cute theme parties, no surprise gifts. Just a nice dinner and a small present from my parents. Maybe something from a friend or too. At least that's how my family is. I miss the cupcakes in class, the balloons, even the clowns, well some clowns. The cute, funny clowns. The scary clowns you can keep.

But none the less it is still my birthday and I'm going to make the most of it. At least I can count on tons of Facebook notifications tomorrow.

And at least there will be cake. Cake always makes it a good day.
