Wow. Thanks everyone for congratulations! I really appreciate it. Squirrley - good looking out!

Now... Mike got me a BEAUTIFUL set of pearld earring with white golden clasps, a sterling silver heart necklace and a matching silver heart bracelet!!! That's so sweet, huh? He even knew I wanted pearls and LURVE hearts (I'm obsessed: I have pink shoes with hearts, a pink bikini with white hearts, and just hearts and bows all over the place. Enough to make anyone sick!) And he got me the cutest B-Day card saying "It's not just your pretty face that I love...(open card) Actually, it's more of a butt thing! (just kidding...well, sort of)"

I didn't get to celebrate, but I got long-distance phone calls, presents and all ikinds of cool stuff! (mom and dad sent me a package!)

Even though I had to study on my birthday, I still had fun. By the way, I put together this power point presentation for my class and wrote a 7-page essay on it, and today I read it in class, and the professor loved it so much, he borrowed it for his next class (to read my presentation to another class)! I feel honored. Either that, or he simply wanted to see if I plagiarized it, which I certainly didn't. I wrote it all on my own. Dammit.
