Normally, I revel in my Birthday week but this year I feel very indifferent about it. Probably for the following reasons:
-31 is an odd number and odd year birthdays suck. (I had mono for my 21st birthday)
-lately I spend most days trying to stay awake whilst also fighting the urge to vomit. When I am not doing that I am in the bathroom peeing for the 597th time.
-I have a full social calendar this weekend. Unfortunately, not a single plan is for me or my birthday. Friday night, I will be knee deep in cupcakes and the chocolate covered pretzels I am making for my sister in laws baby shower. Saturday, I will be in Kentucky for Kevin's company's awards dinner. Normally that would be fun because of the free open bar all night, but since I cannot partake, it will just be boring schmoozing with people I don't know. And Sunday, my actual birthday, I will be driving home and going to my sister in laws baby shower. I'll probably be asleep by 7:30.
So I am officially rescheduling my birthday to Monday April 11th, and extending my birthday week by one day. During this week I reserve the right to:
*Sleep whenever and however long I want
*Eat whatever I want
*Not clean a single thing in the house.
*Not change a single poopy diaper (provided Kevin is home)
I'm still brainstorming this list so I also reserve the right to make revisions & additions.
All suggestions are welcome.
Also, as a present to myself I am taking the week off. The lovely Liz from A Belle, a Bean and a Chicago Dog will be guest posting for me on Wednesday and then Friday I am over at Mommy Monologues as the Friday Featured blog. It is also blog boycott day, so when I am not knee deep in the 60 cupcakes I have to make, I'll be tweeting. Come say hi! @MamaInsomnia
Have a great week!!
