Yes folks, it's true. I'll be 23 in a few hours. And wonder of all wonders, it rained a little today (isolated showers, of course...not on our house) so it's a tiny bit cooler. Still supposed to reach the upper 90s later in the day.

Yes, I got TTT last night (thank you Alex) and yes, we watched the whole thing. I managed to persuade my parents to go for the whole stretch instead of waiting until today...I'm sure it will get watched again very soon, regardless. Only watched the RotK preview and the TTT SE dvd preview...man, I can't wait for nov/dec. I got an Aragorn pin from the nice lady at the grocery store. Too bad it wasn't Legolas, lol. I swear I will get the Realm fixed up sometime soon. I've got to put all the new members on the new fanbase!

I'm dressed up today...wonder if anyone will notice. As far as I know, no one at work knows it's my birthday, which is a little sad, cause I bet someone would have brought cookies. But no big deal.

I'm quite excited cause my birthday gift from my parents is tickets to the Lion King at the Fox Theater in a few weeks. I've wanted to see this for a while so I'm very happy that it's in town and we get to see it. However....Due to some very unfortunate circumstances that I don't wish to go into today my uncle got some free front row tickets for tonight, and he may or may not be able to use them. Realize the tickets we bought are VERY expensive and not refundable, and as much as I hope I like the musical, it's probably not worth seeing twice in such a short period of time. But it's the front row!!!! Agggh. Maybe things will work out and my uncle will be able to use them and spare us the dilemma. Maybe I can sell ours on eBay if we do go. We'd be missing out on Macaroni Grill if we go as well. (lol. not that we can't go out to eat any time, but I've been waiting for some of that Macaroni's bread for ages)

It might be a pretty busy day, which is a little sad. I'm almost sorry to say I want to spend it on the computer messing with my forum...I upgraded it and lost all the modifications I'd made to the previous version (I knew it was going to happen that way so no worries) but who knows what's going on today. Gotta get my Sesquicentennial shirt from WU...how nice. they're giving me a gift on my bday! lol. Maybe I'll go out to lunch. Feel free to send your birthday wishes!
