+ Hooray! It was my birthday! (5)
– I'd have been thrilled with the weather in Seattle, but here it's too chilly (2)
+ I have amazing, wonderful friends (15)
– Going to work on MY day (3)
+ T-Rider coming back and bringing his friends down to the restaurant (5)
– The restaurant being completely mobbed so I couldn't socialize with anyone who came to see me (6)
+ A nice phone call with my mom (12)
– A 2am email from my real father that I haven't yet bothered to read (7)
+ Birthday wishes from unexpected people I haven't talked to in a long time (3)
Total = 22! So I am still winning at life! Huzzah!!
I spent a lot of time yesterday thinking about my family and my friends and how completely lucky I am to have them and to be where I am.
ETA: Apparently this is confusing? These are yesterday's events I am accounting for. Today, so far, I have done nothing but work and chat with Tim. Which, overall, ain't a bad way to spend a morning.

Dude, I thought your birthday was yesterday. God, I'm so bad at birthdays. Even when I remember to wish happy birthday, it's like I still fail at them. Haha!

Yes, it was yesterday, which is why I am tallying up the events now, since if I'd tried to it yesterday it would have too hard, as none of it would have happened yet. 🙂

My brain. It is wonky. You love me anyway, though, right?
