My Birthday!

I am 27 folks! And this was the most non existant birthday ever. Its not that I had planned it that way but just the way it all turned out. It just didnt feel like a birthday at all. The reason I say it was that way is that I didn’t meet a single person who I knew during the entire 20 hours. (My birthday started in Hawaii and ended in the Midwest and so was only 20 hours long)

Sure, I had talked to my parents and brother over the phone just an hour before my official birthday in Hawaii, and I talked to a couple other friends who wished me or left voice messages. I was also inundated with emails, 31 emails in a day from different people has to be some sort of record for me. But given the fact that I was flying for almost 12 hours with my phone switched off and sleeping most of the rest of the day except to go get dinner, I never met a single person I knew during the entire day. TheRock called me later at night after I had had dinner and was surprised that I was home and not in Hawaii. I had told everyone that I was going to be coming back to town only the day after my birthday since I had changed my trip in the last minute to come back on my birthday instead of the next day. I dont really know why I didnt tell anyone that I was going to be home. I guess its the feeling of being lonely standing in the middle of a crowd that I was afraid of.

Its times like these that I wish that I had a boyfriend. Sigh! To have some cuddles and warmth in my bed! :)
