It is now my actual magic birthday!

Ha! I have been so busy doing things on my Magic Birthday List, that I have absolutely lost track of my blog entries. For anyone out there who may be reading this, sorry! \

And so now, today, I am officially 55 years old, the whole entire reason for the Magic Birthday Blog, and the list, and all that stuff. I have been asked why I am doing this, and basically it was just to do something different for a year, and I think it for a great reason!

N0w, there are some things on my list that I haven't been doing too well with. The German phrases - I keep thinking I can memorize like I did when I was younger, but quite frankly, I can barely remember what I am supposed to do in a day, let alone another German phrase! The only time I can reinforce the phrases is when I am at Germania. Unfortunately, that isn't every day, so the repetition I may have been able to accomplish to help me memorize them is unavailable. I have tried to use the phrases at work, but I think they already think me strange enough . . . I have not given up, though, and will commence along that path again soon.


It is past midnight and I meant to do more tonight, but after a CRAZY month of Symphonic Band concerts, capped tonight with the most tremendous fireworks display I have ever been lucky enough to be sitting beneath, (literally) I am tired. So me and my pink hair are calling it a night so that I am well rested for the rest of my MAGIC BIRTHDAY DAY!
