Today is my birthday, and I wish I could say I'm excited, but I'm not. I don't know when it happened over the last several years, but at some point, I started feeling unease when my birthday was just around the corner. This year, the feeling started on Friday. It isn't that I'm anxious about anything, or that I had a particularly bad birthday in the past that ruined all birthdays for me, or anything like that. I just feel unsettled and that feeling won't go away until the day after my birthday. I don't mean to be a party-pooper or ungrateful either -- I appreciate the "happy birthday" messages I get from friends and family, and I'm looking forward to the nice birthday lunch my boyfriend is planning on cooking for us later today. I just don't like my birthday itself. I think I'll feel better tomorrow.
