annathepiperAnd it has been made a good birthday indeed. I got surprised with a cake at work, first off--the contractor who's been working with me teamed up with our lead to get me a tasty chocolate cake from Whole Foods. The same cake I actually got for the lead last month, actually, but that's not a bad thing. Any cake that calls itself Chocolate Eruption gets mega points from me!
Then I came home to find the tasty homemade cake made for me by my beloved![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
solarbird, which we all shared after dinner while I opened up the loot. To wit:
Many thanks to all who expressed their felicitations, and much love forspazzkat and solarbird, who do indeed know me well. Big hugs to you all! ^_^
Then I came home to find the tasty homemade cake made for me by my beloved
solarbird, which we all shared after dinner while I opened up the loot. To wit:- One $30 Barnes and Noble gift card (always a good choice). You can imagine how fast this will burn a hole in my little pocket. Especially now that spazzkat has advised me that B&N is having a "buy one set of TV-related DVDs, get another one free" thing. There's some Doctor Who and Remington Steele calling my name, oh my yes.
- The one remaining Carbon Leaf album I didn't own yet, which is the live one, Five Alive!. Yay!
- One rack for all my weights, which makes me very happy indeed. Now this means I can put all my weights upstairs in the guest room where I can work out without disturbing spazzkat. "Under his desk" not being really a convenient place for my weights to have been stored, for any parties concerned. (Meanwhile, OOF but I haven't touched those weights in far, far too long. It was a workout all by itself moving them all upstairs, I'm here to tell ya. My arms still feel it, even as I'm typing this now. Also, note to self: keep the guest room door closed, to keep out the cat, who left a few unpleasant surprises therein. Meh!)
- I didn't actually get this as part of my birthday loot, technically, but I must also express my appreciation to kathrynt and jessicac, who got me the Masterharper of Pern CD that came out a while back. I am informed that it is full of flute music, and also that it does not suck. Said kathrynt, "Flute, and Pern!" Which apparently sums me up for her.
Many thanks to all who expressed their felicitations, and much love for
spazzkat and solarbird, who do indeed know me well. Big hugs to you all! ^_^

Date: 2007-01-24 05:48 am (UTC)I must admit to being torn, because that DVD offer they've got going on right now is very tempting--but on the other hand, there are also three new books due out at the end of the month that are on my To Buy list. I shall have to ponder this with great pondering!

Date: 2007-01-25 04:53 pm (UTC)I like the treadmill well enough--it's a good excuse to enjoy 40-45 minutes' worth of music--but there's something extra satisfying about doing the weights workout. It's so much more physical.
