Another trip around the sun.

It's my birthday? I don't quite feel like it is, but I'm a-ok with that. Maybe it's because I knew a get together with my favorite people was impossible, maybe it's because I'm finally okay with growing up, I don't know. There is a song by Jimmy Buffett and Martina McBride that has been playing over and over in my head this past week. It lays out perfectely what I've been thinking:

"A trip around the Sun"

Hear 'em singing Happy Birthday
Better think about the wish I made
This year gone by ain't been a piece of cake
Every day's a revolution
Pull it together and it comes undone
Just one more candle and a trip around the sun


I'm just hanging on while this old world keeps spinning
And it's good to know it's out of my control
If there's one thing that I've learned from all this living
Is that it wouldn't change a thing if I let go

No, you never see it coming
Always wind up wondering where it went
Only time will tell if it was time well spent
It's another revelation
Celebrating what I should have done
With these souvenirs of my trip around the sun

Yes, I'll make a resolution
That I'll never make another one
Just enjoy this ride on my trip around the sun
Just enjoy this ride ...
Until it's done


So! Have an amazing weekend. Mike and I are celebrating....at the Melting Pot in Littleton, CO tonight. YUM. Love you! Love wins!
