I've managed to stretch my birthday out over three days. Yay me! Presents, presents, presents! :)
I'm really, really not that greedy, but still, birthdays are fun. I don't feel any older, though everyone seems to think that I should feel like I'm about to expire of old age or something. Whatever, I'm not quite there yet.
Last night I went out with my mom to see Stars on Ice. Everyone knows I love figure skating, so as you can imagine it was a fun evening. Because they were taping the show for TV everyone that made a mistake had to come out and skate and skate and skate till they got it perfect, and for some reason they skated the entire finale twice so they could get different camera angles.
Today after work I arrived home to a family dinner for my birthday. It was incredibly good, the first meal on the bbq for the year, however, as with most food these days it sent me into spasms of pain. I think it was probably the birthday cake that did it, but I'm not positive. Tomorrow I have my appointment with the surgeon, so hopefully I'll know something after that. That is, something more than what I already know.
But, more presents! :) My brother and fiancee gave me both the Toy Story movies because they're about to be locked up in the Disney vault. My father gave me a really pretty anniversary clock which has a Disney theme also. And my grandfather gave me what I need the most right now...money :) Also, this year I got a gift certificate from Flora too. Usually the money is a joint gift, but this year there was an additional gift. Which will be very useful, I can always use new clothes (if you could see my closet you'd know that's not true at all).
So hooray! I'm really pleased with the clock, I was expecting to get the part to make my laptop work for my birthday but as it turns out it ended up being my Easter present. So, the gift was a surprise. (I like presents that are a surprise)
That's all I've got to ramble about today I think. I'm really looking forward to the appointment with the surgeon in the morning. I'm more than ready for this to be over and done with, I don't care how much weight I've lost because of it.
