2 week birthday bash

I received my birthday presents the week before my birthday and we had a grand yakiniku party the weekend after my birthday. With all the brouhahaha before and after my birthday, the day itself was a day of reckoning. I went to work in the morning, worked overtime until 9pm, then went home, took a picture of myself, printed it and taped it on my journal to remind myself in the future what I looked like when I was alone at 28. It was very quiet.
