Yup. I'm 45 today. I was born on my mother's birthday. And, actually, my birth was announced. Boyd Bitting was the announcer for our school's football games and apparently I was born on a Friday and it was announced at the football game. He announced all the games right up through my senior year of high school, and then he retired.
I don't really feel too bad this year. I can have a tendency to get weird around my birthday. Although I believe I have woke up with a headache the last three years.
Jane got me the new socket set I had been wanting (thanks for remembering, dear. better than $182). :) I also got a new crossword puzzle book. And I just went out to the mailbox and there were three birthday cards AND OUR PASSPORTS ARRIVED!!! Yippee!
It seemed there was more I was going to say, but now I can't think of anything. Oh well. Today is also All Soul's Day. Kind of an odd thing as far as I'm concerned. Not too many significant things happened on this day according to wikipedia. Cheerleading began in 1898. Hmm. There are 59 days remaining until the end of the year.
Yup.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!!!!!!!!
Me and Drew got you a 'sweet' gift, if ya know what i mean. So you will still have that to look forward to this weekend!
Did you notice that your Kobalt socket set thing was in a Cobalt blue case? Clever...
SEE YOU SOON!!!!!!
(drinking coffee causes lots of !!!!!!!'s)
Poor Drew drives all the way to Findlay with an artichoke and he gets second billing.
"So... artichoke, we should have a lot to talk about on the drive, I'm thinking you're the complicated type, am I right?"

Dan, I happen to know there's someone out there baking in your honor, probably as we speak. Why is it the really skinny girls make these diet-annihilating sugar on sugar with sugar desserts?
INCIDENTALLY, I was going to accuse you of using a graphic twice, as I thought I had seen this cat before, and I checked your blog on this day from last year. If you want to upgrade your birthday this year to WONDERFUL, just read that.
Carrie,
Mmmmm... I can't wait. And, no, I did not make the cobalt konnection. And... you know, you really don't need caffeine. :)
MR,
I don't think I've used the cat before, but you're right, last year certainly did suck.
Happiest of Birthdays, Dan-the-man :).
Do you know where y'all are going? Actually, I popped over here to tell ya to look at my post today; when I was re-reading it just now, I thought of you and Jane (weird, I know), but it's about a WONDERFULLY romantic (I keep using that phrase, lol) spot and you DON'T need passports for it. Writing about it, looking through my pictures...I wanted to go back again already.
Hope you're having a GREAT day!
Thanks Robin. I think we're going to the Dominican Republic. That's close to Puerto Rico though. :) Thanks for the tip.
