the thing about my birthday, is that i expect everyone to be as excited about it as i am.

this tends to make things complicated, as most everyone sees someone else's birthday as just another day.

i get SO excited about my birthday, that i do everything i can to make everyone's birthday just as special as i would like mine to be. good so far? ok.

work. perhaps i put too much into my coworkers. for tiffany's birthday, i went all out. baked her a huge carrot cake and purchased some candles and room sprays. what did i get for my birthday? nothing. well, i did get a loaf of breakfast bread but, no one could actually sit and enjoy it with me. personally, i think it's totally rude - but i guess that's how life works. the question is, holly's birthday is next week and i am responsible for baking her cake. i will definitely do that, but should i really go above and beyond?

in other birthday news, i got a wonderful gift certificate and flowers from my husband, a cd from oliver, tons of gift certificates, lots of calls and tons of cards! yay, 27.

completely unrealted, is it lame of me to want to have a birthday party for oliver's first birthday?
