inspired week 16 (and a birthday).

{from here}

"She must be allowed to grow up. By the time they were her age, most of the heroines of literature had lived, loved and even died...if she wanted to be a heroine, it was time to start behaving like one."

- Robyn Sisman


happy 25th birthday to me.
i took off work today,
thinking i would pull an audrey-inspired holiday.
instead, i predict lots of lounging around in my pjs
thanks to the stomach bug of 2011
which i contracted sunday and have not been able to dispense of since.

i am trying desperately not to feel sorry for myself
but... i am not a saint.

so, pity party for one?

Don't feel so bad - I got food poisoning on my bday in December (so similar to a stomach bug). It was not fun. But I can laugh about it now - only I would get food poisoning on my bday haha. Life is quirky that way,and you will get back to normal soon and be laughing about this too :)
