hippo birdie to me

51!

That number still feels like an old person age, but I don't feel remotely like an old person. Middle-aged, though, yes, finally, I no longer feel secretly like a teenager in an older body.

Today was a really good day. This is especially notable because my birthdays usually are very Murphy's Law days.  The haircut I got was mediocre, but will have grown out to an acceptable place within two weeks. Everything else, though?
  • Excellent dinner at Miss Pho with Tamera
  • Excellent score at Goodwill (2nd good furniture score this month)
  • Free drink and free cookie from two rewards programs
  • Replacement copy of a CD I've been wanting for ages finally arrived (Eurythmics, 1984, which I ended up ordering from Japan, which, weird.)
  • Haircut was a pleasant experience, even if the final result was a bit dodgy.
  • I remembered that, in the immortal words of Miley Cyrus, could buy myself flowers so there are happy gerbera in my life.
  • Did the big "year to come" tarot spread and it was interesting and not scary, though of course it's utility will only be determined in hindsight.
  • At "work", qualified for multiple interesting and reasonably compensated studies/surveys instead of slogging through nonsense for pennies
