a birth...

At 4:44 AM PST on November 21st, 1978, the doctors pulled a reluctant child into the world. She weighed ten pounds thirteen and one half ounces, and the reason she had to be brought into the world via C-section was that her head was too big to fit going the right way.

Some things don't change. 23 years later, I still have a big head. %)

Anyway, happy birthday to me.

Thanks a million, all of you

Well, on the whole, despite the early start, this day was pretty good. Everybody liked cookies in psych class, my friends bought me an afternoon hot chocolate to celebrate, dinner was saved by dad walking in just in time, and was awesome afterwards. I still have sour cream blueberry pie in the fridge. And I talked to Zibby. It was really good.

So yeah, thanks to Zibb and Joii and Pupp and Aio for the emails, Shad for all his things today, Cal for Pocky, and everybody for the comments in their journals and in response to mine. And if I forgot someone, I'm sorry, it's tired and I'm late. ;)

let's just hope this lasts through the year.
