Took a shower. Raged.
Drank some water so I could shed more tears.
Got ready to go out. Cried again.
Andy took me antiquing. Scowled.
Made me walk until my toes were welded together.
He took me to Best Buy, bought me The Santa Clause (the fuck?).
Went to my mom's house, walked in. SURPRISE.
Cried at my surprise party.
Then someone (AN ANGEL!) gave me some tequila, got drunk, I finally laughed.
So, to my dear friend Tracy (this chick is glad she met you!), cut all that other shit out and go straight for the booze!

Someone must love you to throw a surprise party for you. How sweet. 30 was the worst birthday ever for me. I hated it. After this the rest of your birthdays just don't matter.
ReplyDeleteHaha! Yes! And I will hit the tequila with ya! It's all uphill from here, Tracy. Especially after drinking a few shots of Jose. ;)
ReplyDeleteHAPPY BIRTHDAY!!
Tracy:
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday!
Bee:
That hair really suits you, though you'll have to get a convertible or something if you want to drive...
Happy birthday Tracy.
ReplyDelete30 has been one of the best years. Enjoy it. After you recover from getting your ass kicked by Jose.
Bee: The Santa Clause, antiquing, AND booze? That sounds like the best birthday ever!
So, is this what I have to look forward to?
ReplyDeleteI know, I know, I'm still a young'un, I guess... though most days I feel at *least* twice my age until I am reminded that I have a 2 year old.
BUT! Ha! MetalliDad will be 40 on Monday. My cradlerobbin' old man. ROFL
Awww 30 was no biggie for me. But- The Santa Clause??? Brad's always doing that to me too, buying me stupid old movies I thought were dumb the first time around, like Rodney Dangerfield stuff. Now I realize it's because HE likes stupid old movies.
ReplyDeleteAre you drinking Metamucil yet? Taking the Geritol? Me either, but be prepared. You're nearing certain death at that age!
ReplyDeleteYes, I'd have to say skip to the booze first of all, quite frankly.
ReplyDeleteHappy birthday Tracy!
I can't remember my 30 th birthday.
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday Tracy, you old lady you.
What a great birthday..well, the last part anyway!
ReplyDeleteNearing in on 60 myself and having had a pretty good life the whole way, I can say that my 30's were absolutely the best years of my life.
Cheers!
Oh, Bee!
ReplyDeleteGive that boy a bitchslap for the terribly bad dvd. Look, your thirties will be a complete blur and you will be in your forties momentarily and wonder where those years skittered off to. Happy Birthday, Honey
glad to hear it ended well!
ReplyDeletemy 30th was awesome...i had a karaoke dj come set up a stage on my front porch, complete with lights, sound, and a teleprompter. then i invited all my friends and neighbors to drink, sing, and repeat.
Birthdays are BS in my book. They are second only to New Year's Eve in failing spectacularly to live up to even the most modest expectations.
ReplyDeleteThat being said, 30 was pretty cool. (It helped that I could not wait to watch my crapola 20s swirl down the pooper - buhBYE.) 40 was pretty great, too, because that's when you start not to care about certain, hybrid varieties of said BS. Ahh, sweet relief.
For what it's worth, I have found that no funk - no matter how severe - can withstand repeated viewings of "Undercover Brother." I keep a copy in the freezer at all times. You know, just in case. I'm just sayin'.
Love your blog and love that you have a fish named Chilli Palmer!
:^) Anna
Happy Birthday George Cary and Tracy!
ReplyDeleteHappy birthday Tracy!
ReplyDeleteBee: "The Santa Clause?" Wow. Just. Wow.
Happy Birthday. I turn 30 in December, but I'll cry because my b-day is 3 days after Christmas. Can you say "Screwed royally?"
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday! But I am knockin on 38's door so SUCK IT! ;-)
ReplyDeleteThank you my dear Bee!
ReplyDeleteYou know, my birthday didn't turn out so bad. I'm not going to tell you why cause I have a whole post ready to go about it, I just have to get it out of my head.
And thanks to everyone for their birthday wishes!
Happy Belated Birthday! And 30? Pshaw! I've got 2 years on you, you may now bow down and call me elder, LOL!
