I like birthday's, I especially like birthday parties, I think it gives a good excuse to get together with people, especially for someone as unsocial as I am these days.
I had a big party for my 18th (feels like a million years ago), this went well, lots of people came, it was great! I tried to have another for my 21st, still had a good time, but not many people came.
I decided a couple of years ago that I wanted a big party for my 30th.
Then I got hit with this m.e. relapse... and I am more determined than ever not only to have a good party, but to get as many people there as I can.
I see this party as a celebration of life, I am still alive after all!
I can't go out and socialise, I can't go dancing like I used to, I don't see friends, or family as often as I would like, and there are some people who I haven't seen in years, but would love to see again. So to gather everyone in the same room for a few hours would be amazing. I hope to manage a dance or two too.
I suppose I also want to gather all these people so they can see me, meet my kids, my friends, my family. The people I have invited I see on Facebook or twitter or on the school run, they only see that portion of me and it will be nice to bring them all together.
I imagine I will crash after the party and won't be able to move for a few days, but it will be worth it.
