28 years later

So I turned 28. This wasn't a birthday that I was looking forward too. It should be a law to get your birthday off of work with pay. I wasn't expecting much of a day at all and was feeling sorry for myself.

Luckily I work with a bunch of really nice ladies who made me feel better. I had a nice fresh sausage biscuit waiting for me on my desk, I got several cards and a few knick knacks. Hemp lotion, Burts Bees chapstick, a choccie bar, a butterfly picture frame, a lovely crystal hurricane candle holder, and some accessories for the horse (ha!)... Andrew and I went out for a meal afterwards. I ate myself silly with Olive Garden salad, bread sticks & alfredo sauce, and some Sangria :-D We also got a frame for the autographed Placebo poster since that was my real present from him.

Andrew kindly drove me to mom & dad's house where I got a few more gifts, Mary Kay products, some undies (mom style) and vouchers. Nice. We had pound cake with chocolate icing. Not fattening at all!

I also got vouchers from the English lot - thanks guys! I've ordered a coffee bean grinder, posh nail polish, posh wind chimes and some other bits & pieces. Michael & Becky also sent me some Spongebob undies - very cute - and some Fertility stones. Which I have charged in the moonlight and carry in my pocket with me everywhere.

It turned out to be a very pleasant birthday, thanks everyone. :)
