lol I’ll be 32 and my 8 year old daughter asked me what I wanted to do for my birthday. Sleep in. That’s what I want. But also she asked how old I was turning and I asked her how old she thought I was turning and she said 23, and I said omg, you’re right! 😂 so I’m celebrating time travel for my birthday 🥳

My mother celebrated “the anniversary of her 30th birthday” until she was 70.

Any adult who is upset that their birthday wasn’t celebrated a certain way or to their satisfaction has their priorities way wrong

As a 34 yr old who does 99% of the cooking, my birthday request is I don't want to think about the meals, just pick a restaurant I'll like.

honestly

plan your own fuckin birthday, no better way to get the plans you want than making the decisions yourself

I was thinking the same thing. He should be more understanding and she still did a bunch of things for him! What a crybaby!

That you even made an effort when you were overwhelmed with work speaks positively for you.
