Birthday is on Wednesday. How do I feel, well, I am quite surprised that the last year went by so fast.

Dated a total loser for WAY too long, despite my friends strongly-opinionated (and correct!) views of him, paid off credit cards, went to 2 Fashion Weeks (thx M!), got a new roommate, made some new friends, did a juice fast, discovered the espresso martini diet, lost one good friend (some say good riddance, but I do miss her at times), realized I am not as smart as I thought, realized people don’t care much about the past, or your past, as you do, gone to weddings and funerals and celebrated friends’ new babies, got laid off and learned how to put out a fire.

I am sure I missed a few happenings, but here is to new beginnings.

Here’s to a magical 33rd year!

My Birthday...

well, i turn 33 on Wednesday june 17. i had a list of 33 things to do before i was 33 and did just a handful of them. i lived in NYC, i was in a movie, I helped someone in need, i went to church more often. not too many regrets here, except to be less lazy and use this unemployment time to figure out my life and do some things i don't usually have time for.

Some of them I'd like to repeat..like have sex with a great guy. well, lets change that to find and date a really great guy that has good chemistry with me and that we can talk and have fun together. And he has to get on with my friends too. once all that is good, maybe we can bring some smex into it...

others are new experiences (sure mom, that other one was new too...)

I am going to Pennsic 38 this year, a first for me. So this will be activity that i will have completed by birthday 34, year 2010.
