Happy Birthday to me - Happy Birthday dear wendy

It's that time of year again. I was taken out to dinner the night before and had two people ring and sing ( that old favourite) on the morning and my cousin who should wear her undies on the outside 'cos she's such a legend had a gorgeous card to me on the right day - a few others managed that also. One Aunt gave me my birthday present to bring home when I visited at Christmas.... Another one sewed my name in gold thread and put it a card- very noice, I loike it.
So I have to say spending the hot evening (maybe hot just in my body) on the couch in my underwear with a party hat on was the ideal celebration I feel. I like being single. Although having someone else to alleviate the ongoing song in my head may have been good.... "and the beer I had for breakfast wasn't bad so I had one more for dessert".. catchy little number so I can understand why it wouldn't leave me. :0
I just seem to feel happy on my birthday no matter what- weird, and at Christmas.... I wish I could just decide every day was such an occasion. Ah well, I have a presentation to do today - 4 hours- I just can't imagine what I'll do with them for that long- drink? So I get nervous prior to these things (so it's my job because....?) and have consequently watched a video and read a book (Johno by David Maulof) and had 4 hours sleep so it'll be interesting.
Anyway Happy Birthday to you for your special day.
