Birthday Swag

I've had a REALLY good birthday this year. I made out like a total bandit and the birthday just keeps on going!
Saturday, 10-14: My mom sends us a gift certificate from Legal Seafood. Yay!
Sunday, 10-15: Jen and I get a nice dinner out, courtesy of my grandparents and my aunt and uncle. I got to make my uncle (the lone Republican black sheep of the family) turn red and lose words while trying to argue politics with me. We also got nice cards, money, and two little matching birthday cakes.
Tuesday, 10-17: There were two birthday cards on my desk - one from Coworker Kristine and one from my intern. Then Jen came home for the evening! We went out to a nice yummy dinner at Jacob Wirth where I had a homebrewed cream soda and some butternut squash ravioli (yummmmmm) and then used the theatre tickets I'd bought for us to see "The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee." And then got to spend the night with my favorite smoochie. We received some birthday cards. Jen and I exchange gifts and she gives me flowers and a new Playmobil pirate set!
Wednesday, 10-18: It was time for my birthday staff meeting, and they all sang "Happy Birthday." Coworker Kristine baked me a cake - marble with chocolate frosting!
Friday, 10-20: My
smurfbrother sends us a very generous gift certificate for a fancy schmancy sushi place.
Saturday, 10-21: We have a birthday party! Lots of people come!
eeka13 and
violacat bring me a dinosaur that comes out of an egg when you soak it in water! Former Coworker Nicole shows up with a bottle of wine that I can't even sample. (It smelled good, though.) Shani makes us birthday cards and so does Dan's son, Jacob. Joe brings us bizarro gifts from Korea, including something that /might/ be a fig newton with chocolate chips, and some groovy masks. We have ice cream cake and lots of junk!
Sunday, 10-22: Jen wakes up and makes me banana pancakes with cinnamon. Yum!
This is the coolest present, though:



Best. Birthday. Ever.
