"I've come to wish you an Unhappy Birthday...."

I love that song. It's by The Smiths. Every year on my birthday I hear this song playing in my head all day long. I'm not really sure why, it's not as though my birthday is particularly bad every year or something.....actually, my 30th birthday was a blast.

My birthdays just tend to be kind of lonely.

My parents live out west as does my sister and most of my friends. I have some other friends scattered around the country but none that are close enough to come for a birthday dinner and make it home that same night.....makes it hard to have a celebration.

Then again it's kinda always been that way, for one thing it's way too close to Christmas and for another it's almost always frigid or overly snowy. Not exactly the kind of weather you drag people out in.....

So this year it's just gonna be the King, Ace, Knave, the pups and I but I think it's gonna be a good one. The sun is shining and there's fresh powder, I even got to sleep in thanks to a snow day so hey, Happy Birthday to me!

Oh the weather outside is frightful......

Today they called off school. It's in the single digits and snow is blowing all over the place. We're all bundled up in our blankies still wearing our jammies.... Gotta love a snow day!! Think I'll take another nap.....neener!!

Stuck!!

I live in the mid-west. Western Wisconsin to be exact. My in-laws live in Minnesota, a Minneapolis suburb actually.

On Friday my little family packed up our little cross-over SUV and headed west to Minneapolis to celebrate early Christmas wth the in-laws. on Saturday I was ready to come home but I decided to suck it up like a big girl and be patient because we would be heading home the next day.....no biggie right?

Today the mid-west got bitch slapped by Jack Frost. So for tonight I will be stuck at my in-laws.....AGAIN, get the bail money ready and pray with me that the roads are passable tomorrow morning....LOL

Sorry this is short and whiney but hey youse guys are like family.....'cept different. :)
