happy early birthday to me

My jury duty was canceled - they settled out of court - and a friend has volunteered to take Rob to the airport by 6:00 a.m. tomorrow morning. I've gotten to see out of town friends today, was given a coffee card to one of the best places in town (oh! how they know me!), and taken to lunch by another friend who then found a coupon to get me $13 off two frames I needed that were already 50% off. I'm spending my birthday money on a hot new pair of jeans and highlights in my hair, Rob's given me an accidental hickey and (hopefully) a cordless drill, and we're planning a birthday party that will involve bowling with a bunch of friends. We've signed everything we've needed to for the house to close tomorrow, and coughed up the small fee to have the money wired to us (overnight transaction instead of waiting two weeks for a check to clear), so including the mortgage could give us three big fat debts paid off by the end of this week!

I can't wait to see what tomorrow's going to be like.

I know that this has really been a testing time for you but alas the house has sold!

WOW. Whoever your friend is that took Rob to the airport, he/she is a SAINT and deserves something yummy from your kitchen. Or chips.

I totally saw the hickey....but didn't want to embarass Rob, or make you describe what a hickey was to Blake, so I chose to say nothing. You're welcome.
