Well, here it is, my birthday for 2010. I took a day off from work, and fortunately there was nothing due class-wise today (tomorrow I have a quiz, though, so I should read up at some point). I got all dolled up to get taken out for a great lunch, which was tuna tataki, Caesar salad with bacon, french fries with mayo and a big glass of white wine. No dessert. No way, no room! Okay, maybe later...
Everyone gave me cat cards except Fluffy who is sleepily unaware that today might be different from any other day. Now I'm going to have tea with my husband and spend some time with him. Then later I'll leave him to his own devices while I go to see Avatar on IMAX with another friend.
I got an overseas phone call from a dear friend in Japan, which was the best thing about today. My heart is full.
This day is really my birthday. I'm a Taurus. Next year my birthday will be on a Saturday. I'd better come up with a really good plan!
(Why does Dee look so scary maniacal in this pic? It's frightening!)
Don't be scared of Dee. He's just having a lil' sugar high and he's about to start annoying Ryo.
Thank you! I actually didn't get to eat any real cake today. I was too full form lunch and when the movie was over it was too late. Hmmm... Maybe I can extend the cake part of my birthday to tomorrow.
My sister actually called me from Safeway to ask me if I wanted her to pick me up a box of frozen chocolate eclairs, since they were seriously on sale. I begged her not to on the grounds that I can't be trusted with a whole box of frozen chocolate eclairs. I would just eat every single one of them approximately 118 seconds after they arrived in my house. My husband was SO disappointed!
He said, "What about me?"
I said "WHOSE birthday is it?"
...
You had better be thrilled I wasn't singing that out loud where you could hear me. I can't carry a tune in a bucket. XD
I'm very happy that you had what sounds to be a wonderful birthday! Did you get your dessert yet?
I think Fluffy knows that today's special. He's just not going to let on that he knows. :D
I hope you had (and continue to have) a wonderful birthday, Brit! *lots of hugs*
But I enjoyed your virtual song! I appreciate the attempt, bucket and all.
No, I still haven't gotten any dessert, unless you count the half an Aero bar which my girlfriend handed me during the movie. it's too bad because the restaurant I was at earlier had a flourless chocolate cake on the menu, but I was just too full to even think about it. Fries and mayo will kind of do that to a person.
Thanks for the hugs! *Hugs back!*
The Avatar I saw was the one with the tall blue panther people, not the animated Avatar: The Last Air-Bender. I'm sure I would love that too since I'm such an anime fan. But my love for anime will have to wait until the future because I don't have time for any regular TV shows. I almost never watch TV, except occasionally with my husband when we're cuddling on the sofa or something. And unfortunately, he's the one in charge of the remote and he pretty much never wants to watch anything animated. Unless it's Shrek. He loves Donkey.
Happy Birthday

(Yay for yummy food, fluffy cards, and lovely calls! And I'm sure you kicked that quiz's butt. ;-) )
Glad you had a great birthday!
This Aries ought to know.

I made a post for you, Brit. Have you checked it out?????
Happy birthday (again!)
Love,
