I [usually] like to try to be cagey and not announce No Politics Day My Birthday on my blahg. But even though facebook didn’t announce it this year (I don’t think), some people figured it out. Or knew it. Either because they are related to me or have known me since the Jurassic Age. So the cat got outta the bag and this particular cat is a bit like a cat I once knew named Muksaslooie and I am not even gonna attempt to try to get him back in the bag. So HBTM. I have received best wishes via the phone and text message and email and facebook and twitter and various blahgs. And The Beautiful Chelsea baked a most excellent 2-layer chocolate cake! Thank you all. I love you!

I believe that you should do whatever you want to on your birthday. I don’t mean that you should use it as an occasion to rob the neighborhood liquor store or to be arrogant or selfish or mean or hurtful to others and I don’t *necessarily* mean you should slack. Like, if my birthday falls on a work day, I go to work! But today it did not and I have done just about whatever I wanted to. I got up and took a nice long walk “around” the point in the dark. Like I always do when I am at the cFam Group Home @ Houghton Lake. I cooked a blueberry pancake breakfast for five. The Twinz of Terror and I skied 6.5 miles at Beaver Creek, after which the Uncly Uncle headed north to his new home in Gaylord and the GG and I rattled around Houghton Lake area. We stopped at our fave Best Choice market for more dinner supplies and checked out some of the usual local points of interest like the Muskegon River dam and the Lake James area. It was cold today and although I was plenty warm while skiing, I got so chilled afterward that I indulged in a nice hot shower this afternoon, my second one today. That did the trick. And now I am sitting here with a leetle wee glass of whine, even though The Beautiful Gay is not here to have one with me. The Beautiful Chelsea was painting but not sure where she went and a couple of people of the male persuasion are asnore on the couch.

The GG has been hounding me about what I want for my birthday for the last couple weeks. I keep reminding him that I sent him a whole list of stuff for xmas (which he also kept hounding me about) and he didn’t *get* me all of that stuff for xmas. Which is OK!!! Because I do not need or want any more stuff! But I figure that means he has a ready-made birthday list, roight? Roight. But he is STILL asking me. He asked me several times yesterday afternoon! I said to The Beautiful Chelsea, “Even if I *did* want anything for my birthday, it wouldn’t be something that you could procure in the Houghton Lake area at 4:00 on a Saturday afternoon in mid-January.”

So… What do I want for my birthday? I want for all of *you* to be safe, healthy, and happy and have a wonderful day!

Love,
Kayak Woman

P.S. How old am I? Well. Hem hem. I am three years younger than my loverly “cuzzint” The Grinch!
