Happy birthday to me

posted January 25th, 2015 at 11:55 AM

I have never felt this alone on my birthday.. I have no one. I already cried this morning when I told myself I wouldn't. I just don't know what to do with myself today.. I'm not made of money so I can't really go splurge on something. I just feel really alone and Facebook happy birthdays on my wall are not cutting it.. Two seconds of a smile and then back to me sitting alone in my apartment. I'm going to shower, paint my nails, curl my hair and get ready to at least go have a coffee somewhere.. I will not let this bring me down today.

Birthdays are overrated.

One for You

Even if no one else cares- YOU do. Treat yourself to something YOU like- even if it's a Hersey's Kiss while looking at a beautiful view- Happy Birthday!

Happy Birthday!

I spent my last birthday alone as well. It totally sucks. I wish you a happy birthday and that your next birthday will more than make up for it!

Hope you have a good day

Happy Birthday!!

one birthday I was alone so decided to wash my sheets at the laundromat a few blocks down. The dryer broke and I had to carry them home wet in a bag. Thankfully I have had some better birthdays since and I'm sure you will too.

Happy Birthday!

I hope you take the advice offered above. You might also think about losing the Facebook account in favour of some real human contact. If my birthday fell during a time when the weather generally sucked, I'd "postpone" it and make a special day for myself on the first glorious, sunny day.

Cheer up.

I'd keep you company...

My 50th was in 2014.

I was unable to even get someone I cared about to have supper with me.

I had a hotdog for late lunch, with beer.

Then beer, then more beer, then hotdogs for supper 'cause I couldn't even bring myself to go out for take-away.

More beer, 'til sleep mercifully washed over me.

Happy freaking 50th Birthday to me.

Hope yours is better!

I love this post.I love how relatable it is but most of all, your attitude! Happy birthday, stranger. I wish you a new age of more badass goodness and opportunities to carry your spirit through.
