It Hurts to Be This Sexy 2004-05-13 | 11:43 p.m. It's still my birthday for ten minutes now It is almost not my birthday anymore. But I still have a few minutes, right? Oh yes. It was a rocking birthday, the kind that I wanted to have last year but didn't because there was still so much work to be done. I cooked crazy amounts of food--salsa, guacamole, sangria, and chili, and had about ten friends over to celebrate with me.
A couple of them brought a badass chocolate cake that had berries and flowers on it, which I ended up throwing all over my face. It's not hot for me to do that, but I do it anyway. I'm a messy cake girl. I find it endearing. Yes.
The hanging out was beautiful: really amazing people that I love all coming together and laughing around a meal that I made. Sharing everything. Fingers in dishes of community food, community wine. Grabbing each other's water glasses when we get thirsty.
I want this to be my life.
There were also one thousand calls from family and friends: Drag Crush, Best Amie, Sister, Parents, Nerve Girl, and a few others. Each time the phone rang it made me feel special and excited.
There were no tangible gifts, save one from an Undergrad Friend. There were several cards, all of them lovely and amazing in their own ways. But really, all I needed was the feeling of love all around me.
Yes, I feel like Mary Tyler Moore right now. Hat in the air and all.
Happy Birthday has never felt so very, very right.
