9-17-05 Happy Birthday to Me

That's right. Today I turn 26. Yea me!
(ok, I might have fudged that a bit)

Yes, my birthday is 5 days after my husband's birthday. That means we are both Virgos. Now, that SHOULD be a volatile combination. Two head-strong, opinionated, anal-retentive people living under the same roof. We, however, have made this last for 12years. That is also because of a Virgo trait. We are both non-confrontational people. That means we rarely ever argue. We sulk a lot, but we don't argue. LOL

I awoke this morning to Happy Birthday Banners strung across the living room walls. He's a sweetie. I told him I want nothing this year except dinner out. I'm hoping for a nice mexican food meal tonight. Maybe a movie after and then be done with it.

I am not up to reflecting on my life today. I'll do that when I turn 40.
I will add that my age amazes me on occasion. I remember a time when I thought I would never get this old.
(Not that I'm old, of course, just really crotchety.)

LOL - I just had to look up the definition of crotchety.
Main Entry: crotch·ety Pronunciation: 'krä-ch&-te Function: adjective1 : given to crotchets : subject to whims, crankiness, or ill temper (a crotchety old man)And a crotchet is:
Main Entry: crotch·et Pronunciation: 'krä-ch&t Function: noun
1. obsolete
2. a highly individual and usually eccentric opinion or preference


Yeah, that's fitting. Today's word is CROTCHETY. Use it wisely.

Have a good day all. It is my birthday and no one is allowed to be sad today.

:) Thank you Christa. I wish I was 26 again too. LMAO.

I am currently staring at the pc whilst the hubby takes his afternoon nappy. All is relatively peaceful so no complaints here. :)

Agnes said...

LMAO the HAPPY-BIRTHDAY-BLOG. How incredibly cool is that!!?? What a silly grin I have on my face.

I dunno who's fault that is but it cracked me up and thank you a hundred times.

You don't know who was responsible for the Happy-Birthday-Blog wishes and still you visit my /T/BLOG/ and leave me a ton of funny comments. Looks like that birthday-grin of yours is contagious.
Again Happy B-Day! (this time signed as /T/)

26! Screw that--I didn't know crap at 26. Still know know crap but I least I can fake it better now that I'm older. I say bring on 56 and then 66. Oh, and I would order the buritto, chicken with no sour cream. ;-)

Trée said...

Can't spell or even get the right words right. "Don't know crap." Geez . . .slinks back to my ballgame . . .

Agnes said...

ROFL, Trée you crack me up.
26 was a wonderful year and, of course, it didn't matter that I didn't know anything because I didn't know that I didn't know anything. I thought I knew everything!!! Ignorance is bliss baby.
And there will be no beating one's self up for typos on my blog. I know the difference between two, too and to and still I typed: Thanks you too. Plural "too". DUH.
LOL Proof I'm getting older. My fingers work faster than my brain.

Trée said...

Hey, where is the update!!! ;-)
