I have a tendency to celebrate my birthday every year. I'm sure this is not uncommon with people, but I think less than most try to organise a party every year. As long as I can remember with at least some clarity, I've invited people to my place that day. More often than not, that day has been the 20th of December, mostly because I was born that day (hence, the birthday).
Last year was a disappointing failure, due to me having a serious case of eartube infection, which to my personal experience ranks high up there as Things That Are Seriously Hurting Me -scale. I mean, "Ouch!". More so the pity, as last year I would've turned 40. And did, of course, just not with friends and all that.
So, imagine my dismay when people at workplace started getting sick with strange case of flu. And while some understand that staying at home and treating the sickness is the best alternative, some were less savvy and decided to come to work, none the less. And then more got sick, and then… I got sick. Yesterday I felt like I might be getting IT and today at work I knew I should leave right away. Yet I didn't, you see, there were still few among our crew, that weren't sick already. More the merrier and all that.
Now, it looks highly likely that I'm going to skip this year as well. The 20th is just around the corner, this Saturday (Saturday!!! How often do you get Saturdays?) in fact. Bummer, to say the least.
"Least".
So, maybe not. Damn.
