Today is my birthday. I'm 39. As far as birthdays go, this was an alright one (hell, I'm not 40) but it was a pretty quiet day.
Craig had to go away on business so the kids and I had a lazy day. They took me out for sushi (of course, I paid), I got to spin and knit and I'm spending the evening watching Battlestar Galactica.
I also got to see Emma play an exciting game of soccer. She scored a goal, then stopped all but one as goaltender. They tied playing one girl short and with no subs so it was a fantastic effort.
And I got emails, tweets, and wallposts wishing me a happy birthday. I love my virtual community--thanks for the well wishing I love all the attention.
There was also Mississippi Mudcake.
We ate it watching George Burns on the Muppet Show. Good times.
Sounds like a wonderful day! Happy Birthday!

Happy happy belated birthday, Steph! May this be your best year EVER, filled with lots of fiber, love, joy, good health and prosperity. :) xoxo!

Seriously. 40 is pretty f-ing awesome, too. But any birthday with Mississippi Mud pie is a good one, especially if there are Muppets involved. Say hi to the Swedish Chef for me! And Happy (belated) birthday!
