Birthdays = Depressing!

Well, it's official... there is something wrong with me. I cannot sleep at night and then I bounce around all day staying busy with this and that but never really accomplishing any. It's got to be the impending doom I feel as a turn another year older tomorrow. (hint, hint to my sisters!) Or maybe it's the ADD I caught from nephew. Whatever it is I DO NOT like it. I'm usually the type of person that if a sit down or sit still for too long I fall asleep. So to not be able to sleep at night and not be tired during the day ... it's a manic episode I guess. Hell, I don't know. I guess I need to ask for some Ambien or a tranquilizer. I know, I'll call my personal pharmacist ... my sittle lister, Tricia. She has anything and everything you need. Back hurt - check; cramps - check; happy and want to feel sad - check; sad and want to feel happy - check. She's got it all. She may not take it all or every day, but she's got it all. I guess I could try an ambien and see what happens. I just cannot shake the feeling of impending doom.
I guess it's just that I'm tired of people always wanting something FROM me. I never seem to run across anyone lately who wants to give or do for me, just take and tell me what needs to be done. I'm sick of people in general. Just when you think someone might actually care, nah, you knew you were hallucinating or having "hearlucinations." (That's Tigger talk for hearing something strange!). But that's ok, I can file away the indiscretions against me for a time when I'll need them later. And believe me, I will need them and I will use them.
I can't imagine what Brent's getting me for my birthday. I really don't want or need anything ... just some alone time without the boys would be great. The whole family is going with us to Tokyo (my current favorite place) so we can indulge in some great wine, food and sushi, sushi, sushi. I never thought I'd like it but I LOVE it. Liam and Ian really do love it too. They can't wait to go again. Brent, not so much, but I told him maybe it would grow on him. But I doubt it.
My friend's birthday is today, her daughter's was yesterday and another good friend's birthday was on the 4th. We usually do a birthday lunch day and go out to lunch and to Barnes & Noble but she's teaching this year and so we'll have to postpone it for a weekend day. I ordered my friend a coconut creme pie (yuck) but that's her favorite so I'll deliver it to her house this afternoon with a card. I know, not much but I cannot think of anything else she'd rather have. She said it's her favorite and I'd be ecstatic if someone did that for me with a lemon pie! MMMMM. Gotta run and pick up her pie and stop by my neighbor's jewelry store to find her daughter something for her party this weekend. Ciao!
Lesley, if you read this, call me and I'll tell you the plan details. Luv ya, M
