sixteen, no, twenty-nine candles


hair: inspired by kirsti. she has made me fall in love with high ponytails all over again. except, just like in elementary school, they make my scalp ache after a couple hours.

lips: remember my wish list? so chaud by mac. love it.

eyes: hand selected by a team of julie, kirsti, and me at urban outfitters. cheapest frames ever to put my prescription in.

29, and feeling fine.

well, feeling fine about the age part. but i did just have a 30 minute sobbing session. i told tyler... this is why i spend my birthday alone- no expectations. birthdays are both my best and worst day. it's complicated. but, now i am feeling on the up, and we have made a game plan to my liking. so i'm off.

birthday breakfast at mcdonald's this morning. yes, i chose mcdonald's.


ps- one of my all-time favorite michael scott quotes....
"i've always been good with older women. in fact, for a long time my grandma was my best friend.... then she met harriet. now she thinks she's better than everyone."

You look like you should be celebrating "16 candles" in that picture. Happy late Birthday, you deserve the best one. Love you.

you are really pretty. i hope the glasses thing works out. i'd like to do it as well. i don't think you should get orange juice at mcdonalds when their diet coke is so good. i am having a #2 birthday day for you in a few weeks when stability has returned and i'm no longer vivi abbott walker. then we'll have a good time and a good day over the phone
