Technicolor

Sometimes I feel like Joseph.

"But think on me when it shall be well with thee, and shew kindness I pray thee, unto me, and make mention of me unto Pharaoh and bring me out of this house:" Genesis 40:14

"Yet did not the chief butler remember Joseph, but forgat him." Genesis 40:23

Reasons why it sucks to have a birthday on a holiday.

1. First and foremost it is a holiday to everyone else. It's your birthday second. The most important thing to everyone else is the fact that they have the day off or there are other parties to go to. Your birthday is secondary.

2. Everyone is too busy dealing with their own shit to think about you. You're an afterthought.

3. No one has time to plan anything for you because they're too busy planning their own stuff for their holiday.

4. If there is going to be any sort of party in your honor you have to plan it yourself....which just makes you feel lame. And most people won't attend because they have other holiday related things to do.

5. People go out of town for your birthday.

6. Everyone cancels at the last minute for your 14th birthday party. Thank you Y2K.

7. No one goes out of their way to make you feel special.

8. Not that presents are important, but it's so close after Christmas that everyone is broke and they feel like they don't need to get you a birthday present because they just gave you a Christmas present. Yet you're expected to give them a birthday gift whenever their birthday falls later in the year.

9. A lot of people don't even remember that it's your birthday because they're too busy thinking about what they're going to do for themselves that day.

10. All of your favorite restaurants and places are closed.


Today is New Years. That's all. I might as well not have a birthday.
