I'm a princess and don't you forget it

It's my birthday...well Wednesday. However, I got to celebrate a little early with some of the wonderful people I'm always writing about. JB and Skip were in town this weekend so we got to get out for a bit and "hang". JenJen worked with JB to get Momma Knee and others to come out to hear some music http://www.prophetsofsoul.com/ and enjoy some simple food and people. I'm not saying that in any diminutive way - I'm saying it more as a back to the basics. I'm sick to fricken death of hanging out with the meat market crowd and having to worry about how you look when you are on the dance floor or going to the bathroom. BULL SHIT.

Anyways, didn't get the whole crowd out, but we had an absolutely wonderful time. Em (the girl who is living with us this year) came too, and she was a delightful addition to the group. JB made me wear a tee shirt - though fitting in it's description "Why are you talking to me, you know I hate you" was not fitting in any other form - cause my boobs looked like a just got out of Dr. 90201's office, but doc must have forgotten to take care of my luv handles. That and the princess tiara that said Birthday Girl. It was cute as can be, but I was going for low key - not stand out with the bride-to-be walking around with a blowup man and drawn on genitals...Though, I really could not have competed with that even on my best day :)

Anyways, I was very surprised when Momma Knee (AKA Carol) came out with my castle cake. SO BEAUTIFUL. And let me tell you, I ate my freakin cake, and I ate it for breakfast today too, and a little after dinner. I feel like a total princess. JB, Carol, JenJen - if I was the crying type, I would have been sobbing - I LOVED IT. And hopefully Bernie's girls enjoy the princesses too.

So, Wednesday is the official day - when I officially turn 36. Carol gave me a funny card Outside: In life, you're either the HAMMER or the Nail, so on your Birthday, the question becomes... Inside: Would you rather get hammered or nailed?

I didn't do either on Saturday but let's see what I can do to take care of one of those come Wednesday. I'll let you guess which one I'm planning on.

Well, it's time for this princess to get ready for bed. Back to the real world tomorrow.
