Birthday

I had a very busy day yesterday, and a pretty good birthday, although once you grow up, its just another day. I had to wake up early and get to the salon for some appointments I had. I was so excited that I felt good. After my appointment I had a job interview to go on. I was offered the position, but I am going to research it some and carefully read through the contract to make sure it is something I want to do. I also contacted my sister, who is in the industry, to ask a few questions. I had to hurry back to salon to do my other appointments. I didn't get home until about 6. I had wanted to go to the gym with Jacob, but its a better idea to make sure that I am all clear to work out again. My parents were going to come up to our house with dinner and my birthday cake, but my Dad was sick. He NEVER gets sick, and he felt so bad that they couldn't come. He wanted to still try, but I told him to stay home, I didn't want to get whatever he had. So instead, I wanted to order pizza, I have been craving bread sticks from Papa Johns. I had them all to myself, but only managed to eat 2. I laid on the couch watching Ghost Hunters. I was happy to just lay around. I got lots of phone calls from friends and it was great to get to talk with everyone and catch up.

There are quite a few people getting married this summer. I just have to laugh at how caught up you can get in wanting things "just right" I know its different when its your first wedding. I've been there, and did that, trust me, its not worth it. Take the money people!! LOL In all reality, no one cares how fancy it is or how elaborate it looks. The part people enjoy most is joining you in taking your vows. That is what a marriage is about, not the party you throw. The day goes by SO fast you hardly remember it yourself. It almost seems like everyone is in a competition, how weird are women! We all know the men don't care :) I am so glad that Jacob and I didn't argue about one thing to do with the wedding. We didn't make people have seating arrangements. We didn't worry about who couldn't make it. We just wanted everyone to feel at home. When the day is over all that matters is you are together. Of course, these are all things that everyone tried to tell me my first time around, but of course my response was, but its your special day that only happens once. When it was all over, I had wished I listened. At least Jacob and I got to do it again in a way that really meant more to us. In the end all that matters is that the two of you are happy.
