So guess who got some hot birthday sex...

Now that I have your attention, it sure as hell wasn't me. Today (technically yesterday) was my birthday. Want to know how I spent my fucking birthday, well I'll tell you. The alarm went off at 6:30 after a very restless night of maybe 3 hours of sleep. I don't sleep all that much, so not too much out of the ordinary. I hit the snooze a few times, finally got up, showered and got ready for work. I left my house at 7:30 AM. Now today, as my birthday, I figured I'd at worst leave work on time, but truly looking to get out a little early and hit up a local spot for a few birthday drinks. I live in a dream world. In reality, I walked back into my house, after coming straight home from work, at 12:16 AM. I spent 16 hours at work on my birthday, and didn't even have anyone to come home to, not even my dogs. Not to brag on myself, but I am very good at what I do, and very dedicated to doing it well in order to better myself and my career, but this is fucking ridiculous.

I got exactly 6 birthday well wishers. My dad left a message, my ex sent a text, my married friend called me late the night before, an old HS buddy left a message, and two of my newer acquaintances. The ex really surprised me, but by this time I should never be surprised. Oh, and with regards to gifts/cake/hugs/handshakes/drinks/sex/anything given for this type of day, nada. I know I'm too old to get caught up in that, but at least someone offering to take me to get a drink or something would have been nice. Oh well, I've complained enough. I have a meeting early tomorrow for the shit I was at work late for tonight. I will leave with my birthday wish list, in no particular order:

New Job that I like
Intelligent, beautiful woman that I can talk to, rely on, loves me and I love
A meaningful kiss and someone to curl up next to
Grass in my backyard
My dogs
Real Sleep
Something to smile about

Tomorrow (today) is another day.

Additional Note#1: I was looking at my visitors and how they got here, and it struck me funny that the google search "guy alone unhappy "love life"" had me listed as the first hit. I'm number one in someones heart haha
