L: "Happy birthday bitch! You are officially older than me again. What a grandma."
Me: "What are you talking about, whenever anybody asked what tmr's dinner occasion is, I'd tell them, 'Wellll I guess cuz I'm turning 20 and allll.' But spanx for the wishes."
L: "See turning senile already."
Had Mexican at a restaurant my Mexican roommate approved as not dawgfood.
Me: "My mom sent me a pic of a cake with a candle, did she have a cake for me without me?"
L: "She said she found it on her comp."
Me: "She looks through my pics?!"
L: "Your mom said how's it going through your pictures when it's on your comp."
My mum overbearingly loves her children, and with that comes no sense of privacy.
SMACK.
My supervisor: "What was that for?!"
Me: "IT'S MY BIRTHDAY I CAN DO WHATEVER I WANT."
In my world, doing whatever I want means being whatever age I want too (in addition to abusing my superiors).
My first birthday away from home. I miss everybody insanely, but distance is only a physical bastard of a thing. I'm glad my relationships with my friends and family aren't like when I was really 20, living in the same vicinity yet neglected and uncherished.
I'd been sick of pretending to be happy lately, so I endured about a month of some uber emo times. But here are my words of wisdom after "20" years of blessings, even with my share of lemons and all: Smile at life.
Don't pretend there's sunshine when there are rainstorms, but in those times do remember about the rainbows and prevention of droughts, forest fires and heat strokes.
“Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothes? Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they?"
-Matthew 25-26
