I'm not one for birthdays. I've had some pretty not cool stuff happen to me on my birthdays, like throwing up in front of a whole group of people, having a tooth extracted, failing and ECE 110 test and getting stuck on the bus for an hour... really, not very much fun. So I don't always look forward to birthdays. I'm also not much the fan of drawing attention to myself because that just isn't who I am, and birthdays tend to be days that you do have attention drawn to yourself.

So this morning started out and I had to give announcements at church. One of my contacts must have fallen out somewhere between my bathroom and the door, so I was all disoriented. Thankfully it is was the eye I don't use. I got to church, got through 2 services without my birthday being announced, then the associate pastor announced it in the 3rd. I was all like drat so I got out of there quick and headed to lunch. We went to Mimi's cafe which was ok but overpriced and the service wasn't so great. I got home and got a phone call that two friends wanted to take me out and not let me sit around by myself all day. I agreed, and we were to meet to go bowling at 4. Well I get there, and not only do they show up but they brought an entourage of other people from counterculture with them. It was really sweet. They even brought a cake and we had a grand old time bowling and then hanging out afterwards. It was definitely good times and maybe the turnaround to horrible no good very bad birthdays.
