I blew out candles on a stack of cupcakes for my birthday on Friday, and although today is the actual day, I made my wish then. Usually, I never make a wish on the candles, their symbolism just doesn't strike me at all. But this time I'd decided to let myself be caught up in the moment. I wished for love...and more importantly I wished for the courage to let it happen to me again and this time, to recognize it, accept it and not overanalyze it to death.
So, in lieu of that, I placed another personal ad online. And I put some pictures with it. And I got several emails this morning...and I've decided I'll email responses back to at least three and see where it goes.
Happy birthday! And best wishes, so to speak.
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday!
ReplyDeleteLaurie/Buggy: you could, of course, take the wish in a non-superstitious way, and think of it as a goal for which to aim by your next birthday (and well done you on not being superstitious in the first place).
ReplyDeleteHappy birthday, NotSamantha! Your fete made for good stories ; )
ReplyDeleteCongrats and happy birthday NotSamantha! Good karma will come your way soon.. :)
ReplyDeleteHappy birthday!!!
ReplyDeleteI try to do the three-at-a-time email thing, too. It's just the right amount to keep your options open, without becoming too overwhelming and confusing. Good luck! I hope this will be your year.
i'm a lil late but happy belated birthday!
ReplyDeleteYeah, I'm with the late crew too. Happy Birthday in arrears!
ReplyDeleteYay! Birthday wishes! I only get one a year...maybe I should have two!
