    Re: my sad, long-winded pity party

    We share the same birthday! I turned 26 yesterday.

    Like you, my birthday was pretty sucky. Whereas some of my coworkers get full-out parties on their birthdays, I got a card - a day late (this morning). My husband had to work late, so we couldn't celebrate. The day finally ended at 12:30am without one single "happy birthday" song sung to me. I was sad.

    Gah. I'm sorry we both had crappy days! But happy birthday, regardless.

          Happy Birthday.. I am a September b-day also. I know what it is like to have a bummer birthday. My mother once gave me 3 caramel apples for a gift. But now I wish she were still here to give me one of her crummy presents.

          I am celebrating my birthday next Friday with Sugar Free Jello shots lined up in the shape of a cake with candles. I will be celebrating renewed health more than my 47th trip around the sun beginning.

            Don't say no.

            Or else!

            And Happy Birthday. {{{soft}}}

My husband had to work late, so we couldn't celebrate. And then my mother, who promised to take me out to dinner in the morning, just fed me leftovers when I got to her house instead. My godmother never called me (and she ALWAYS calls me on my birthday). And the day finally ended at 12:30am without one single "happy birthday" song sung to me. I was sad.

            Gah. I'm sorry we both had crappy days! But happy birthday, regardless. At least we've got ADBB's love, right?
            Awww...happy birthday, chickie!!! What was it with the world yesterday?? To make matters worse, Britney Spears had her baby yesterday, so for the rest of our lives we have to share our day with her. lol

            Thanks for your good wishes everyone. They really helped. I don't know what I'd do without you.

            Okay...so now I'm going to stand up, put my big girl panties on (that used to be in someone's siggy) and move on with life. I have much better things on the horizon, including my sweetie's homecoming.

            Thanks again, everyone.

              Well Happy Belated Birthday! Now go take those CD's back for an exchange and get ones you might like. Then remember to treat yourself with to a special bottle of shampoo or Walgreens has massaging oils in different flavors that are about the same price as that shampoo so when your Sweet Heart returns he can have a much healthier snack of you in your new improved packaged body...

                I am a new poster to this board, but HAPPY BIRTHDAY! I have been lurking on these boards for a while now and you are one of the people that has inspired me the most to take this weight loss journey. I am sorry you had a bad birthday, but think back on how far you have come from your last birthday in terms of fitness and health. I know it doesnt completely make up for a bad birthday but you have given yourself the best birthday present possible.

                Kiss
