Birthday Fuss
Filed under:
A surprise birthday gift from last year
Y birthday is coming up next Saturday. There will be no fuss, but a Christmas party instead that night. I can recall last year’s birthday quite vividly, but I can’t say I enjoyed it. The photos reflect poorly on that very reality.
I never liked getting older, especially because I was among the oldest kids in my class (a December born). I tolerated rather than celebrated. I hope and expect that this year’s birthday will be yet another ordinary day, at least in my mind. Perhaps I can fool myself… thinking that I never truly mature by letting it pass by quietly. We digress…
