birthday

It's my birthday, and I'll cry if I want to, cry if I want to, cry if I want to. You would cry to if it happened to you. Okay, so there's nor eason to be crying today (besides that I'm turning 30--igh). That annoying song was just going through my head all day. It's now Sunday morning, the morning of my 30th birthday. Julie came to NYC with me, and we're staying in my mother's house for the holidays (and my birthday). Did I also mention that today was my birthday? And I have a pile of presents waiting for me?

So far, Julie's meeting my family has gone well. She's a little sick, which I'm sure is making her a lot more self-conscious than she would normally (or like to) be. But she's doing great with my mother. This should be a good day, barring any unexpected happenings.

My new Cintiq! My birthday present! Okay, it's not that new anymore, and we're four months past my birthday. It survived the move to Mercer Island, and is now on my fancy new desk in my fancy new office in my fancy new house.

This is a few months late, but here's my birthday celebration doodle from December.

We're getting ready for Erik and Gloria (and monster)'s visit starting tomorrow. Yesterday was our first relaxing day in the Villa. We planned to bring stuff to the Castle, but after dinner, we sat on our TV couch and didn't get up until it was time to sleep. It was very pleasant to veg.

Julie's Birthday!

It's Julie's birthday today. Happy birthday, Julie! I gave her my gift--and, yes, a fancy hat and scarf IS a good birthday present. Julie shares her birthday with my niece, Rachel. We gave up trying to find gifts for our nieces, and decided to send amazon.com gift certificates for all birthdays (that and contribute to their college funds--they're not as excited by that as their parents).

Getting back to the Julies (which is exactly what she was thinking at the end of that last paragraph), we have reservations at the Waterfront Seafood Grill in Seattle tonight to celebrate.

This has been a very busy year for the both of us. Last year on Julie's birthday: we were not married, still lived in the Castle, Julie had not opened her medical practice, and we didn't have Ziggy or Button (oh, quiet bliss!). A lot can happen in a year. I'm hoping this year is just as exciting!

This really happened on my birthday. The part I left out was that I was too lazy to even make it to the store so we used a Chanukkah candle instead.
