I'm about to turn 33 which I am looking forward to like a hole in the head. To make things worse, my birthday is on Easter, and the last time it was (22 and 11, notice a pattern there), my family virtually forgot about it. I've got Vegas odds in my head about whether or not they'll remember. (My mom is the worst culprit and she's a Christmas baby so she of all people should understand).

I'm out of work now (and desperate to get on the road again) and my love interest is 6 hours away and I hope he does not forget about me.

Changing jobs on the 16th. Still working for the state making the same money, but a different agency, better future, less stress. Instead of 50+ hours a week, maybe now I'll pull 40 a week and find a part time gig to make the ends meet.
