I turned 31 yesterday, and I debated even making this post like I do every year, because it was pretty uneventful. I had a very tiny family party last weekend (only six people were there), and we had pizza and key lime pie. I usually take a picture of my cake (or in this case, pie), but my parents' dog knocked it out of the package.
Yesterday was my actual birthday, and I spent most of it carting my mom around town to run errands. I did get a new grill out of the deal, though. Last night, I got take-out at one of my favorite restaurants and a piece of red velvet cake from Publix. That was pretty much the extent of my excitement. I was in bed by midnight.
I also forgot to renew my driver's license, so I won't be driving for a few days.
Anyway, I actually had big plans for this week.
1. First of all, I found out Ed Helms was doing his little LA Bluegrass Situation thing in LA the weekend of my birthday, and I've always wanted to go to that.
2. If you've been reading my last few posts, you know I opted to spend part of the week in Charleston and see Alison Krauss and Union Station instead.
3. Then I found out the Beach Boys were touring and would be in Atlanta on the same night I was to see AKUS in South Carolina, so I had to make a decision there.
4. Then, due to my overall lack of employment, I had to cancel the South Carolina trip, and it was too late to get tickets to the Beach Boys and definitely too late to get my butt out to California.
5. Then, my cousin and I tried to meet Jen Lancaster a few nights ago, but that didn't exactly pan out as planned.
6. And I tried to reschedule the Charleston trip sans AKUS concert, but work schedules would not coordinate.
7. And then I found out yesterday that Aziz Ansari was coming to Atlanta next month, but the tickets sold out before I could even get to the page to buy them.
It was at that moment that I decided to give up on doing something fun.
Anyway, I guess when you get to be my age, birthdays are stupid anyway. Oh well, I'm attending the family beach trip next month, so I'll be looking forward to that. And my pool should be open soon; I really want to get back into swimming. Oh, and Netflix just sent me this! Woohoo!

Happy belated birthday Sarah!! Mine was Sunday. While it was a great day, I think your're right - the older we get the less exciting it is.
I hate that you had to miss out on a great trip & AKUS. I'd love to see her in concert! I'm wishing you a year of abundant blessings. May this time next year bring you full love accounts & bank accounts :)
