What a wonderful, worry-free birthday I have had! It felt great to just abandon my responsibilities for the last 48 hours and just enjoy myself; it's been hard to do that this last year because I'm always so inundated with school and work. I shouldn't really even call it abandoning my responsibilities, because I worked really hard ahead of time to make sure I had things taken care of in advance for the my birthday, knowing I wouldn't want to worry about things between my birthday and this afternoon.
Do I have a lot of homework to catch up on?
Am I exhausted?
Did I text a lot of people that probably didn't need to hear from me?
Did I do some silly things?
Yes, yes, yes, and yes. But it was all worth it because I had a damn good time. And I don't regret any of it.
I also received so many well-wishes and good thoughts and love - I truly am a lucky girl. I know some of those texts and Facebook wall posts were just the obligatory "Happy Birthday," but I also know there were a lot on there that meant it. And I got absolutely spoiled by my friends that were here to celebrate with me. All of my gifts that I received have a story behind them, a lot of thought put into them. And honestly, that will always mean more than the gift itself.
I am a lucky, lucky girl. And I don't remember the last time I had a birthday where I was this happy with where I'm at in my life. It's something beautiful, I tell ya.
