Today I turn 32. It has been a low key day really. I slept moderately last night. This morning I took the kids to daycare, as usual. Then I went to the gym. I was bummed I didn't get on my favorite machine, but it felt good to move my body regardless. Then I came home, played some Scrabulous, and took a loooooong shower. Then I got Keith for a lunch date. We enjoyed pizza slices from a new restaurant here in Corvallis that has the closest thing I've tasted to REAL New York pizza. We also dropped in a framing shop to get a painting framed that used to hang in my aunt's home (the one who died 2 months ago). Getting the painting professionaly framed is my birthday present (plus the awesome massage that I got yesterday). Then I took Keith back to work and went to a movie. BY MYSELF. I've never done that before, and it was pretty awesome. I love going to the movies. I need to do that more often. I saw I AM LEGEND and boy...it was spooky. As someone trained in the biological sciences, the concept of a super-virus (that we engineered, no less) wiping out the human population is pretty terrifying. And now, I'm home and relaxing with the kids. I'm going to pick something yummy for Keith to pick-up for dinner (Indian maybe?) and then I'm going to start baking my birthday cake, which will be shared this weekend when some friends come over to celebrate.
Yeah, it has been a pretty nice day. 32 feels a little different than 31 because I can vididly remember when my Mom was 32 (I was 10) and she seemed old. Guess I'm getting up there.

It sounds like you had a fabo day. I'm glad.
I love going to the movies myself but just recently went and was grossed out by all the smells and noises. Either my pregnant bionic senses interfered or I have simply gotten used to watching movies on my couch, six months late, and on my own terms. Still, for a lot of movies nothing compares to the big screen.
