Today is officially the first day of the last year of my twenties. For those of you who are boggled by word problems (like I often am), let me spell it out for you. Yesterday was my birthday; I turned 29. I'm not exactly sure how I feel about the 30's looming ahead 364 days from now. I'm a firm believer in "age is just a number" or "you are only as old as you think you are," but I'm starting to see 30 as kind of a scary number. Not end-of-the-world scary, but it's more of the go-hide-under-blankets-in-your-cozy-bed-for-a-while kind of scary.
As for my birthday, it was what I wanted. I didn't really want to go out to eat. Instead, I just wanted to order in my favorite veggie-loaded pizza and relax with my husband. I was able to 
indulge in some gelato earlier in the day, which was nice :). But once I got home, it just didn't feel like it was my birthday. Maybe it was becuase it was a Thursday, or maybe it was becuase I'm getting older and birthdays don't always hold that same magic and wonder. Regardless, I felt myself feeling a little blue (Eeyore-style) this morning. Maybe after my "birthday party" with some old (and new) friends tomorrow, I won't still feel like I'm being followed by a rain cloud...
