Wondeful Birthday

I had a pretty great birthday this year... at firstI was a little worried about it because I woke up and it did not feel like my birthday- I know it gets worse as you get older, but I guess the little kid in me still wants to feel like the most important person in the world on my birthday... But I got a call from Mike first thing, and that was wonderful : ) It was the first time I've been able to talk to him since the last time he left, and we got to talk for a half hour or so. I do miss him a little.

Then I went to work. Wasn't too bad- as I said before, I just switched departments, from my transition training to the tansfer of srvice depeartment. I got a new manager, and I was training that day too- it was nice because I like my manager and most of the people I will be working with. I was thinking about calling in to go home early all day, but in the end I decided to stay the whole day and just deal with it.

I got home around 9:30 as usual and talked to my parents for a little bit. They sent me a card and a package of goodies like books and shirts. My good friend Tiff got me an iPod shuffle- I couldn't believe she was so generous! And Josh bought me a strawberry cheesecake ice cream cake from Dairy Queen (my FAVORITE place to get an ice cream cake from!) And then another friend of mine, Tiff's boyfriend Dan went to the Joe Satriani concert, and had backstage passes, so he brought a blown up picture of the last time he went to see Joe in concert, and he had Joe sign it and put "To Jenn" on it. So I was thrilled!

Overall it was a great birthday. The only thing that would have made it perfect would be to have my hubby here with me. He should be coming home soon after the weekend though, he said maybe Tuesday or so. Now I can't wait to go to the mall this weekend and get our new computer!!
