Kids half my age can vote, but they can’t buy booze, so I’m not THAT old yet.

Happy Birthday to me!

I was born on the only command of the year: March Forth!

Fourth.
Forth.

Get it?

No, I haven’t taken things to Literally on my birthday…it’s nowhere near Crested Butte!  ;)

I hope you have a fabulous day. I know I will!

Maybe I’m not turning 36 tomorrow. Maybe I’m turning 12.

I can’t stop calling Crested Butte, Crusty Butt. I know! I know. I’m sure the residents of that wonderful mountain town have heard that little joke a million times.

But, I just can’t stop saying it.

Maybe I’m not turning 36. Maybe I’m turning 12.

Either way, we’re off! We’re headed out on our Beautiful Mountain Birthday Getaway, sans babe!

We’ll be unplugged, so I won’t be around to respond to any comments until Monday.  There will be some things scheduled to post the rest of the week, so you’ll have something to read until we return…

You know when we return from Cressss-ted Byoooooot.

Wow. That was hard.

;)

I wonder if she will even notice that we are gone?

Happy March! It’s March 1st, so you know what that means, right!? It’s my Birthday Week! Yes, I celebrate my Birthday Week…because I can. Old people can do what they want. (Hey! Get off my lawn!) My birthday is on the 4th, and this year, my husband is taking me on a mountain getaway. We’ll leave on the 3rd, drive to a wonderful Colorado destination where he will ski and I already have a full spa package already booked! I’ll have hours of uninterrupted writing time, and I’m so excited I can hardly see straight.

We’ll be away from Claire for two nights, which is two nights longer than I’ve ever been away from her. Can you believe it?

I know she’s ready, and I’m sure I will be too. This will be nice test-run for when we escape to Hawaii for two weeks in October.

The mountain town we’re visiting has terrible cell phone and data services, so we’ll be unplugged. The last time we were unplugged was for our 12-day Road Trip out to California via the Grand Canyon, and it was awesome. They say I’ll still have spotty cell phone and txt service, but the Internet will have to figure out how to survive without us for a couple days. (I’ll have Glenda with me, but I’m not about to pay $450 per kilobyte or whatever it is to check email and play online. I’ll be too busy being massaged and pampered. Darn.)

Honestly, I can’t wait.

The grandparents will be here to watch Claire, and I wonder if she’ll even notice that we’re gone?
