when my girl was young that was different, but now when my birthday comes along, meh. I appreciate people remembering it but it's just not all that important.

I'm pretty bad at remembering others birthdays so maybe it's a way to compensate, or something.

Back when the holidays just exhausted me what with working, kid, shopping, cooking, cleaning etc., now I just like it as simple as it possibly can be - and I'm glad my little circle of beloved ones think the same way now as well.
