Happy Birthday To ME!

   So, today is my 26th birthday, and I honestly cannot believe that I am twenty-six. Twenty-six just seems so old, and way too close to thirty for my liking. But, regardless, of how I feel about getting older, and closer to thirty, I have decided  that I cannot obsess over it. If I do I think I will just feel worse about myself, and my shortcomings in life. So, I want to focus on the positive aspects of my turning twenty-six. I mean I should be celebrating the fact that I have survived twenty-six years on this earth without once ever being run over by a bus, car, or god forbid a herd of angry elephants. I think that is a accomplishment to be proud of and it deserves celebration, not mourning. So, today I want to celebrate the good things about my life not the goals I have yet attain.

 So, here's to surviving long enough to turn twenty-six, and living long enough to survive god-forbid thirty.

   Before, I end this post I just wanted to say thank you to all of my friends and family who have made this birthday truly wonderful and memorable. I truly appreciate all of the birthday cards, gifts, emails, text messages, phone calls, facebook messages, and tweets I have been receiving at an alarming rate throughout the day. I don't think my blackberry has ever worked so hard.  I am truly appreciative to everyone that took time out of their day to make me feel so very special today. You are all wonderful and pretty amazing.

   So, thank you to everyone who has made this birthday amazing, and for helping me stay positive when all I really want to do is wallow in my own self pity.
