April 21
Always my favorite day of the year ;)
Go to Wikipedia and look up your birthday (excluding the year). List three neat facts, two births and one death in your journal.

No writing last night – went to Baby Brother’s play, was pretty good! But I’m itching to write. The dh wants to go to dinner tonight, but I think I’ll get him to bring home dinner and we’ll watch a movie – haven’t been home all week! At least it was a fast one.
My birthday presents to myself ;)

Happy Birthday, Mary! May this year bring you a book contract! :)
Thanks, Michelle!!!!!
Happy Birthday, Mary!!!!
Happy Birthday! Great presents, and so nice of you to share. :-)
Happy birthday, Mary!!!
Happy Birthday Mary!!! Does that make you Taurus--I can never remember the date change thingy but seem to recall we are both bulls :)
Hope you have a lovely day!!!
Thanks for sharing your presents to yourself! ;)
BTW, I stumbled on DEAR FRANKIE last night on one of the movie channels, so I watched it. What a sweet, sad, hopeful little movie! And it goes without saying that Gerard was yummy.
But now I have to write the sequel in my head. 'Cause, you know, it needs a little more complete ending.
::sigh::
Happy Birthday Mary!!!!!
Happy Birthday, Mary!! Like Michelle said, I hope this year you get that first sale. Oh, and a Golden Heart would be nice too. :)
Happy birthday to YOOOOUUUU! Happy birthday to YOOOUUUUUU!!!
Thanks, guys!!!! It was an okay day at school. My unit gave me a B&N gift card, and Cindi baked me a cake. My mom, Baby Brother and stepdad all called me in the AM. My dad sent me this VERY mushy email, which started me crying. My Other Brother called me at lunchtime. The only person who hasn't told me happy birthday is my son!
I think we're going to kick back tonight, since I have a big party tomorrow night. Oh, and I got two Justin Chambers movies in the mail! If they stink, I'll just fast forward to his parts.
Paula, I've told you about DF - glad you enjoyed it!
Oh, and I am a Taurus, on the cusp with Aries.
Okay, I think J needs a good, swift kick in the pants. :)
LOL, Trish - he made up for it with a heart charm from James Avery with the sign language symbol for "I Love You." Picked it out himself.
Happy Birthday Mary!
Thanks, Mary Beth!
Happy Birthday, Mary!! Thanks for all the well-wishes on my exam - it went great and it's over!! :)

Thanks, Alex and Elizabeth! It was a very James Avery birthday ;)
