Happy my birthday to you

So I wanted to have like this profound entry on my blog for my birthday and I thought and thought about what I would write and I had many random thoughts....and of course no time to jot them down. Or I thought of them at a time when I couldn't write - like on shabbat...rabbis frown on that....or in the shower. Paper does not do well in the shower. So here are my thoughts in short, as it is friday and I still haven't cooked for shabbat and I really wanted to get this posted.

So I was thinking about my ??th birthday and I was kinda sad about all the stuff I haven't accomplished yet and all that life sorta stuff and I got all sad and that's not appropriate for a birthday.

Then I got an email from Facebook that someone wrote on my wall and apparently Facebook can't keep up b/c I only got one email when really a lot of ppl wrote on my wall. In fact so many ppl wrote on my wall, that some ppl's posts from like a minute ago are already not on my wall b/c they are under "see older posts". So that made me feel better. A lot. And then of course my roommates gave me a heart attack when they banged on my door at 1am and burst into my room to sing Happy Birthday. It was really funny. (Thanx guys! I love you.)

So now I'm thinking how lucky I am to have so many loving family and friends and all the good times we've had and who cares about what I didn't do. I'm looking at what I did do and what I have now and I feel very blessed.

So to all my friends and family - altho I don't think anyone in my family even knows I have a blog....whatever.....to all my friends and anyone else reading this, you have all touched my life in some way or another, some more than others - like the random person reading this b/c it came up in a google search, you probably didn't really touch my life all that much, but you are reading this so thank you for that.

To all my family and friends, you have made my life so rich and fun and full of excitement and full of love. I have never felt that as much as I have in the past few years. Thank you so much for contributing to that. I hope you all feel as blessed and as loved as I do. I'm looking forward to having more fun and excitement and sharing more love with all of you.

I love you all <3>
