Happy Birthday to me!!!

I've made out pretty well so far and it's not even 10 AM! My daughter sent me that adorable 'I Love Lucy' purse, my son bought me a beautiful new aquarium, my father sent me the book about baseball that Brian Kilmeade wrote (It's How You Play the Game) and he even had Brian sign the book personally with a Happy Birthday message in it. Of course I bought myself that great new bed to put in my newly pink room!

Today I'm going to go to Home Depot to get new switch plates, outlet covers and vent covers because the old ones have gotten pretty funkified.

That's more than I've gotten for my birthday since I was a kid and my mother had parties for me. I had a lunch date today but I made it before I knew that I was working last night so I might just have to see if the guy wouldn't mind switching the date to Friday. It's a first date so I doubt that he would mind. If he does mind...he's too freaky for me. But...I doubt that he will. He's a business man with a really good job so I assume he's too mature for goofiness.

The nurse for whom I worked asked me if I could work "Thursday night" for her and I said yes. Since I work 7 AM to 7 PM, I assumed that I'd be working those same hours last night. So, of course I went into work at 7. When I got there, I found out that I wasn't supposed to be there until 11 so I went home and took a quick nap. Then, I went in and worked 11-7. An 8 hour shift is a walk in the park after working 12 hours so often. So, I had a good night.

Damn, I just caught myself sleeping sitting up in my chair. I suppose I'll need to take a nap before I go to Home Depot. I took a couple pictures of my new aquarium so if I can post them in my sleepy fog...I will!

OK...I did it! Here's my new aquarium!

More presents! There was a knock on my door and when I answered it...there was a man delivering a vase full of flowers from a guy who seems to like me quite a bit! I brought them into my room because they match the walls beautifully!

Yeah, I'm doing well this year!!!

Cool.

Now I'm going to lie down...again!

The USP man came and brought me the cutest umbrella that I've ever seen from Solaris! It has a map of New York City with the subway system on it. The tag looks like a Metro pass like the one I bought when I was there a few weeks ago. Solaris, how sweet of you to remember me! Now, I can't wait to go to New York and read my umbrella to navigate my way through town....I just hope it's raining at least a little bit so I don't look too silly reading an umbrella in the sunshine!

OK then. I'm headed out now to have a bit more birthday fun.
