Despite the fact that I didn't get any sleep last night thanks to my warped work schedule and the fact that I had to fly from DC (cold) to Chicago (colder) and then Chicago to LA (not so cold) today, my birthday has been pretty fantastic! The Gators won the National Championship just before midnight on the East Coast so that was a great present right off the bat (I realize this is a mixed sports metaphor). I learned the final score from ESPN.com because I was still at work at the time, but that didn't make the victory any less sweet. I was pretty out of it during the first half of my actual birthday due to sleep deprivation (dozing off on the flights didn't help with that), but I took nap when I got home this afternoon and that made everything better. I woke up when Dan got home from work and he had a wonderful surprise for me - an apple cream cheese birthday pie! Writing about my wish for a fruit-based birthday confection on my webpage really paid off. The entertainment for the evening was an episode of MST 3K called "Laserblast" which turned out to be pretty funny. Now I'm watching Dan play Guitar Hero World Tour and ordering several articles of National Championship apparel (on Dan's laptop because mine is still busted). It's been a great day, and that's saying a lot since my birthday usually turns out badly. But I got back to LA with no problems (despite the snow in Chicago) and I've spent the evening with my amazing husband. What else could a girl ask for? I can't believe I'm 30 years old now!
