All right, I'm sitting here at work bored out of my mind. Work? Still sucks. )

My birthday! Yes, the birthday update. Thank you all for your kind birthday wishes. They have been much appreciated. :D

I got an ice cream maker and two ice cream recipe books from Katy, who loves me and wants me to be a fat bridesmaid.
Should be fun.
Unfortunately, the ice cream maker was replaced by a set of pint glasses by Williams-Sonoma, for some unknown reason, so we're going to have to straighten that out.

Dave made me a wonderful dinner, using his father's secret Shrimp Szechuan recipe, which he has entirely mastered at last. Mmmmm, it was amazing.
And then he said "I have your present all picked out, but didn't know what size to get you." So I went through all the sizes I could think of-- 9 1/2, 14, 36DDD, 7. "How many gigs?" he asked. He drove me to the Apple Store and bought me an iPod-- a 30 GB iPod.
It's amazing!!
Well... I only have 25 GB of music. Aw! But I keep finding more CDs of mine that I haven't ripped yet. So... I have a little bit of room to grow yet. Hurrah.
It's just... it's just COOL.

I can't believe he spent that much money on me, though. I bought him an E-Z Pass for my birthday because I got him nothing for his birthday... It's hooked into my credit card so I'll be paying his tolls. Sadly, it hasn't arrived yet in the mail, so he's still got to fuss around with money. But it's on the way! (I think. I have to check up on that.)
Pretty cool...

We're going up to Albany this weekend. Mom is making me a cheesecake, and there's another present up there that was too big to mail, that they're sure will fit in Dave's car, and Ann assures me is "awesome".
So...

OK, I've thought of something work-related to do, so I'm going to go and do it. Bastages.
Later...

If only we'd known all that, the blackout would have been easier to endure.

:lol:
I just noticed I haven't updated on a single weekend all August long.
Definitely says something about my changed habits now that I'm a working woman.

Also, my use of :lol: points heavily to my recent Internet forum addiction.
