30, THIRTY, THIR-TEE. On the 12th of February I will be thirty. I will be thirty and celebrating without all my sweet girlfriends from home. (This makes me sad.) BUT, I will be celebrating with my wonderful husband. (This makes me happy!)

I told all my kids that they are not to say "happy birthday" to me. Instead they are to dress in full black and say "I am sorry for the loss of your youth." We'll see what happens on the 13th.

Anyhoo, send me your condolences... THIRTY!!!!! I can't be 30!!!
