Birthdays!

I have been reminded why I love birthdays so much. So far, my daily routine hasn't changed, except that my boss treated me to breakfast and lunch, as opposed to just buying me lunch. That aside, it's been a regular day. But I've been so happy all day. Why? Because it's my birthday. And why am I happy on my birthday? Because it's the one day a year that I know for sure I'm going to hear from people I haven't heard from in ages as well as the folks I have the pleasure of seeing almost every day. Even though it's just a quick "Happy birthday" message, it is just so nice to be reminded of the people I have in my life. Plus I get the special treat mixed in there, like an overseas phone call from my brother and his girlfriend, or package full of random gifts from Mom and Dad... Top that off with giving me a reason to get all my friends together on the weekend to eat delicious food and party???? Birthdays are everything I want in life. Food and loved ones. THAT is why I love birthdays.
