| A lovely birthday :) |

I had a lovely birthday and got tons of messages from my friends and family.
145 facebook wall posts 27 status messages 18 facebook messages 1 awesome facebook video 2 singings of "happy birthday" 9 text messages 6 birthday cards (2 from my students) 4 phone calls And "Up" from my lovely roommate :)
We had baked mac and cheese, spinach pie and an artichoke. We're having birthday cake in a few and now we're watching "Up" and relaxing. A lovely 25th birthday indeed.
Thank you to all for making it wonderful.

Well, I went home this weekend to celebrate my 25th birthday! And, it was lovely!
I flew home on Thursday night and crashed. On Friday I started my day by going to Hofstra and visiting some lovely people and then finally getting my hair cut (it really needed it!) After a roast beef dinner Mom and I headed into the city to see "The Toxic Avenger" which was interesting. Strange, but fun to watch. I recommend it. We also saw the tree and wandered around looking at holiday windows, which are always fun.
On Saturday Mom and I went shopping for a bit and then I returned and us kids headed to JCPenny to get our picture taken (Mom's holiday gift). It took a bit, but we got some great pictures. We got home and had a birthday dinner of eggplant parm, artichokes, tortellini with pesto, salad and spinach pie. We finished with failure cake (of course!)
In the evening the girls and I headed out to a night on the town and visited the Nutty Irishman and Croxley's. A fun time was had by all!
All in all, a lovely birthday.
 Mom, Me and Dad with my birthday cake :)

Me: (student is kneeing on the floor and using a chair as a desk) "What are you doing?" Student: "I'm adding a wee bit of zest to this thing we call reading."
I'm still not sure what he was doing. But, apparently he added some "zest" to reading.

This morning was the second morning that I have been woken up by gun shots... apparently the hunters go out before dawn because deer are noccurnal. Who knew?
