My 26th Year

tear.

A night spent in quiet anger. How much do you put into your birthday? A day that is all mine once a year. I don’t need gifts galore and crazy romance. But I do want ro spend it my way. I was informed that I was going to his parents house for dinner. “Mom wants to know what you want for dinner on your birthday.

Truth be told I hadn’t thought of what I wanted to do that day. But after that question I realized what I didn’t want to do. Spend it with his parents. I don’t get to see mine, and he thinks I want to spend it with his? Doing the same thing we do every Sunday? Rather he ddidnt think. I didn’t even get a choice.

Forced to think about it I decided I would want to bike to lake calhoun, eat something, relax, laugh. Maybe grab some ice cream, ride home. Have sex. And no roommate.

Last year was great…know why? Cuz we did absolutely nothing. That was sarcasm. So this year I made sure to make arrangements for something I like. I’ve also been researching for his bday, which is also around the corner.

I like giving something special to the people I love. I am not sometimes. Giving a gift for special occasions is something I highly value. Say the words to your Mom that she longs to hear. “thank you Mom for loving me, and always being there. Thank you for making me all that I am.”. Getting someone who is in pain from work a full body massage. Taking someone somewhere they’ve never been but always wanted to go. Giving them an adventure they mentioned they were interested in. Memories.

I am really hurt by this. Now I go to sleep in silence.

You know what I love more than anything? Coming home from a late night of work and having to listen to H talk about MrZ’s ex.  Wahhoo!!!  It’s not like they are even real friends anymore.  H will jump to her side anytime Fish needs someone, but neither of them make arrangements to hang out or speak any other time. They are crisis friends.  

So this is what happened: apparently Fish gave her bank account information to some dude that she was trying to get a job from on craigslist.  Then cries when she loses 2200 bucks. Dumb ass.  Ha, the stories keep coming.  So H was going to meet up at a bar with Fish, so H could chat up this guy that was going to be there.  H arrives and calls Fish to make sure the girl was coming.  When H finally gets ahold of her, she replies with, “I went home to change and I realized that I had someone to meet at 9.”  and therefore ditched H. - Great friends.
