I already knew today wasn't going to be the best birthday I've ever had, I'm extremely sick and I've been bed ridden for weeks, because of a medical procedure scheduled tomorrow I was unable to eat today and instead I've spent the last two days taking a gross medicine that tasted like sea water (I had to drink 3 liters of it)
It made my stomach hurt a lot and I spent 99% of the day crying, falling asleep for a bit, then crying again ;; I barely left my bed and when I did it was to relapse, which I'm quite ashamed of.
I felt very disappointed today and very frustrated and angry and sad, and that's certainly no way to spend your birthday, so I'm trying to sweep all of that under the rug and focus on the good things that happened today, and the good things I have to look forward too!

Firstly, My mother bought me a really cute Pinkie pie!:

And I also received a ton of nice messages on my blog:
This positive attention really helped me, even if it was only online, I don't have any irl friends so I haven't actually hung out with friends or had a birthday party in several years, but having so many people send me wonderful messages online made me feel a lot better! I was happy so many people acknowleged me.

Most of my presents haven't arrived yet, but the best present of all today was a beautiful letter my fiance wrote for me, I don't want to share it because it's super personal, but it's amazing how a few kind words can really make someones day a whole lot brighter!!

Anyway, earlier on in the day I would've declared this the absolute most horrible birthday of my life, but when I finally pushed all those negative feelings aside and focused on the positive, I realized it wasn't so bad after all!
