Mmm mmm. I just finished my mac and cheese birthday lunch and followed it with my last bite of dark chocolate from Valentine's Day.
What's that? A mac and cheese birthday lunch? That's all you get for the trouble of living 26 years?
.... Yes.... You see, I had my opportunities to go out to my favorite curry place, but I've been battling a sore throat which is currently in the cold-symptom stage.
I turned down invitations to do more than linger at my desk today. It's a matter of lacking the energy.
But that doesn't mean I don't have a change of scenery-- far from it.
You see, our community editor, Fairlight Baer, always gets each staff member a birthday plant. Mine is a cool little tropical that I hope will live to be a ripe old age (I do have an aloe vera that I estimate to be 10-14 years old, but everything else seems to die on me).
Do you have any birthday traditions at work that you would like to share? Add your comments below.
