My Birthday

If I didn’t know better, I would swear the whisker on my chin is playing a game of cat and mouse. I keep trying to pluck it and it is ever more elusive.

A whisker. On my chin. Combined with the overpopulation of white streaks staging a revolution on my head of hair, I am nothing if not attractive.

Welcome to your 30′s.

Tomorrow is my birthday. My plans are extraordinarily simple and willing to change. Breakfast with my mother and Abby. A nice dinner. A cake, of course, with enough candles to burn down the house. A visit to a salon for a complete frizz overhaul (JUST SHAVE IT BALD). Apparently, boring is the new little black dress.

Ten years ago, at the threshold of my 20′s, I could never have imagined where I would be right now. The family I would have. Here’s to hoping the next 10 years bring even more wonderful surprises (albeit of a quieter, gentler variety).

    Happy birthday. 30 brought me my 1st gray hair and i see real wrinkles developing. 10 years ago 30 sounded OLD. Sigh
