Happy Birthday to Me

203.6 (not bad after having Pei Wei for dinner last night)

Today is my 37th birthday. I know some people don't like having birthdays or don't like making a big deal out of them, but I am the opposite: I love my birthday and definitely consider it an occasion worth celebrating. Even though I am now getting perilously close to 40. LOL

MM and I will be watching Indiana play Arkansas in the NCAA tournament at a local sports bar tonight. Fun, fun. I am looking forward to hanging out with him.

I still have a little lingering congestion and cough, but feel that I am (finally) on the mend. Being sick has really sucked. With the improvement in my symptoms, I've also seen an improvement in my mood. And the fact that it's my birthday probably helps, too.

I have had calls or messages from a few friends, and suspect that I have some birthday cards waiting in my mailbox--I haven't checked the mail this week because Mom had been doing it for me and I've gotten out of the habit. Both my parents called this morning to wish me a Happy Birthday, too.

Work is mellow today. A lot of people took today off because it's Good Friday. I need to prepare for a deposition on Monday morning, but I don't have anything else that's terribly pressing.

I went to my hairstylist last night, so my hair looks fabulous today! LOL I decided to get all-over hair color, instead of just highlights, to cover my ever-increasing gray hairs. I figured at 37, I need all the help I can get to look younger.

I'm finally going to the spa to take advantage of my Valentine's Day massage tomorrow. Hooray!
