Let the Countdown begin!

There is a very special day coming up in exactly one month.

Saturday 16 August, 2008

That's my 26th Birthday,
the first day if my week-long vacation to Toronto
and
the first anniversary of my giving up cigarettes.

YES! I quit smoking almost a year ago. I have quit a few times, but never was able to make it stick. But now it's different. I know that even when I feel weak and that I want to smoke, I won't enjoy it. I also can't afford it, but really it's because I know that I will get nothing out of it. Therefore, I don't bother with it.

I can't wait to get back to Toronto. This summer has been busy, hectic and tiring. I am looking forward to relaxing with Laura for a few days and not allowing myself to worry about anything. We are trying to meet up with Sharon too. For this, I am especially excited. And of course, there is the surprise I'm planning for Laura. So far, my cryptic clues have left her boggled and confused. Awesome. She will kick herself wen she realizes what it is. I am so good.

And yes, I will be spending the majority of my ACTUAL birthday in the car, driving to Toronto. That's okay though. I don't mind too much. At least the company will be good.

Anyone wanting to send any birthday greetings/gifts... gas/vacation money would be very appreciated. I know it's not very classy to ask for cash, but that's how it is. Besides, I can't be classy all of the time.
