Normal is for OTHER people
Kindly disregard the whole pity party post. Look over there, there’s nothing to see here. Lest you think that nearly exactly 24 hours after being told my birthday was CANCELED, I gained perspective and found joy in my heart. Basically that I grew up, I did not. Stop worrying that I found some deep maturity regarding my birthday.
What I did get was a phone call, exactly 24 hours after being told “Sorry, there will be no birthday” telling me that in fact the birthday was NOT canceled. Prince no longer has to work. I no longer have to cancel the birthday fun.
To say I’m thrilled is an understatement. To say I’m thankful is an understatement. To say I wanted to drive to Prince’s work and hug someone who must have gotten my mental anguish over it is an understatement. To say that I think the Prince is still upset with me, is very much an understatement.
So, publically, lest Prince not believe me, I’m sorry I threw myself a pity party last night. I’m sorry I was so upset that I could not confort you for trying to do what you could. I’m sorry. I’m even more sorry that I wasn’t really able to “put my big girl pants on” and move on until I heard the good news.
There is joy in the Snarkville house. I’m thrilled to have my day back. I’m half a mind to go to bed now so tomorrow will get here faster.

YAY!!! And now that it’s Saturday (by the time I’m reading this), I can say HAPPY 33RD BIRTHDAY TO OUR QUEEN! I hope it is going to be a wonderful day, and I’m so glad Prince will be home!
