"OH I'M SO CUTE... I PLAY THE UKELELE"
10 years ago
Glad You Could Stop By! Please, Come on in and Soak Up The Greatness!
Well I'm writing this journal from in front of the house where I was born in Warrington, the United Kingdom, 31 years ago.
Why did I come all the way to my birth home you may ask? Well the answer is simple. You see, I was born in this terrace house back on 17/January/1985...and I intend to DIE there.
So, every year on my birthday, I fly over to England and make the journey to the house where I was born just on the off-chance that I may die. Of course it hasn't happened yet, seeing as 30 other birthdays have come and gone without me dying in the house where I was born, but I don't want to take any chances.
The people that live there now are very nice. They've grown accustomed to my visits and will have a birthday cake ready and waiting for me. As well as some very delicious tea. This year they made a Tres Leches cake. Very MOIST and very tasty. We enjoyed it while waiting for my doctor to arrive and confirm that I was indeed, not going to die.
Like I said...you can never be too careful.
So we enjoyed our cake and tea and they wished me a Happy Birthday and my doctor and I shared a cab ride back to the aeroport. I wanted to get back home. It was very cold and rainy in Warrington.
So there you go. I turned 31 years old today. Yay.
How have I been doing? Well I've been very busy with work upon returning home after the New Year. I've been having good days and bad days. Some days I can hold the depression at bay and put on that mask to show others that I'm doing fine and no need to worry about me. Other days...I don't know. I fight with inner self trying to feel better and not dwell on things I can't change. I am going out for a birthday breakfast with the twins at eight. I'm letting them think they are treating me. It brings a smile to my face and I know they will get a kick out of it. Afterwards they want to buy me a birthday gift or two. I will let them take as long as they want and will give them a wink at the fact that I'm pretty much buying my own gift. They will understand when they get older. For know I'm going to go along with it.
I'm not expecting a phone call or message from Nicole. She wished me a Happy Birthday along with a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year back in December. So I guess that's that. *shrugs* I know I should try to move on...but its difficult. I feel that emptiness day in and day out. It's not easy...but I try.
I don't know. There's more I guess. I really can't get into it right now. But that's the main things that have been going on. I do have to get around and head out, before the breakfast crowds start gathering. I just wanted to let everyone know I'm doing okay (well, the best I can pretend to feel) and will have more news and such later on in the week when I have time.
Take care and I will catch up with you all soon.
