Birthday on the way.....

Well, I'm turning 36 next Wednesday (yes, Valentine's Day and I hate it more and more every year). I'm finding myself wishing that it would snow and keep us out of school so that I can avoid everyone who wants to wish me a happy birthday, and also all the people who won't.

What can I say? I'll be 36 and still forever-single, and I really get tired of all the people telling me how great it is that it's my birthday. They think it means tons of presents from guys, my family, etc... And I'm thinking... what guys? I don't date anymore, and absolutely nobody is expressing an interest in me. (And how many times have members of my family forgotten my birthday.) There's also that time that they called to invite me to go with them to Boyettes', knowing I hate the food there. I thought maybe they might say they'd go somewhere else, but they didn't. It was kind of a "we'll see you later then" and the entire rest of the family (except Mom, of course) went out to dinner without me on my birthday. I kid you not. LOL

It's okay though. There's been nothing about my birthday that I've enjoyed for several years. It isn't that I have excessively high expectations. I truly expect absolutely nothing cheery to happen on that day, therefore I won't be disappointed.
