If your 37th birthday were next Tuesday, what would you ask for?
I can't decide what I want.

New cookware (I do really need)?
MP3 Player (I've never had one)?
Smelly-good girly stuff (...meh)?
Clothes (I feel fat...not in the mood to try anything on)?
Good bottle of booze?

Don't know what I want (besides a Carvel ice cream cake).

1. I would ask for new shoes
My 35th birthday is on 10/4 and that's what I'm going to ask for.

4. A trip somewhere you'd like to go?
Even for just for the weekend.

I know it's not on your list, but I thought it might be a good gift anyway. And memorable.


(If you don't want that, get an iPod--I adore mine and didn't even think I would.)

5. Hmm, my 35th birthday is this Tuesday--
I just want books. I have a vacation the week following, so I should be able to squeeze in reading time. For me, a big pile of books and time enough to read them is my idea of paradise. Maybe with a nice glass of merlot or some 12-yr old Glenlivet.

6. being 8 years younger is more than enough present
I don't think I would want anything else.


Okay, maybe it would be even cooler to rewind the last 8 years and somehow goto Florida and make it right. At least I could party like it was 1999.

10. You ain't no dweeb, just young.
When you get to be my age you lower the bar to success. Every day I open my eyes I am grateful for another day!
