My birthday happened, even though I was completely dreading it, not the birthday itself, as I love birthdays but the number associated with this one. And guess what? Nothing is different. I probably won't willingly announce how old I am anymore because I really do feel that this makes me old AF even though I don't feel it.
The girls and I decided that the best way to celebrate would be to go away for the weekend in between my birthday and Lily's and so they arranged everything and it was lovely. We shot over to the West coast and stayed at a brand new Marriot. It wasn't on the beach but did feature a really lovely rooftop pool and bar and offered everything we wanted for a girls weekend away. We had dinners in lovely restaurants, spents the afternoon on the beach and the traipsed about Naples without a care in the world. Lily tried to encourage me to investigate the popular art of thrift store shopping but that my friends will NEVER EVER happen. Are you thrift store shoppers? I can't imagine putting my bits, yes those bits, in clothes worn by strangers, I don't care how many times they've been washed! Nopety!
Having landmark birthdays definitely has it perks.
Probably the strangest part of this entire birthday dread is that I don't feel old. I see people who are the same age as me and I want to shake them and say, stop acting like my grandma.
