Happy Birthday, Gabby!

Today is my daughter's birthday. She will officially be 7-years old at 3:42 pm. I got out of work early today (surprise surprise) so I could run around picking up more presents, cake, etc. Nothing has gone as planned. I stayed too long in Target, but got lots of cool stuff for her. I saw this keyboard, and thought, "Gabby would LOVE that!", and then instantaneously I thought, "My EARS!!!" But, it's her day, and I can't wait to see her bright brown eyes light up, so I bought it anyways. I went to the grocery store to pick up a cake and a bouquet of balloons. Somehow I forgot about the balloons, and on my way home, I had to make an emergency stop, at the stop light, before I sailed through an intersection of traffic, I forgot all about the cake, and the stupid thing went flying onto the passenger floor!!! Remarkably it's still in relatively good shape - just smushed up against the packaging on one side, and missing frosting from the top on the other side - that's all!!! I can't believe this. I just hope Gabby doesn't notice. I almost bought her sparkler candles, but didn't...should I have?

We were supposed to go to Chuckee Cheese tonight with Josh and Carla and her son, but I'm so tired, I still have to go to the gym, come home shower, pick up Gabby, and then after all that, drive her to her dad's. And...after my shopping today...I'm broke!!! Broke Broke Broke. Do you think Gabby might understand??? She is getting some cool stuff afterall...I won't even mention what she conned Josh into buying her last night when he babysat for me (another story!!)

On another note - I feel like my computer has been invaded. It's been doing all kinds of crazy things the last couple of days. I'm not sure what to make of it, other than the fact that one of the guys I've dated before is pretty much a computer hacker, and he is kind of mad at me, and he did tell me all about how he likes to screw with people...I don't know...could be nothing...it's just weird!!!

I'm glad Gabby liked faking my gift good. I would be worried otherwise... :0)
I'm confused, what do you mean? I haven't checked my mail this weekend. Is your gift coming soon?

Pretty Decent Weekend

I went out Friday night, and....I met someone. We really, really hit it off. I think some of you who know me really well would be shocked at how good looking he is. His name is Paul, he's 29, and he's only been in San Antonio for about a week. Anyway, we talked all night, I drank a little too much, and so did he, so the night didn't actually end that well because there was an argument between him and Andrea. I thought he was a little rude, and also maybe he would be scared off. But we were texting last night, and we're going to meet up next Friday. I really do think he should apologize to Andrea first though. Although, I'm so green with this dating thing...I almost think that's too much to ask when you're getting to know someone. I don't know, you tell me. Saturday I pretty much did nothing but recover. And then Sunday, Andrea, Gabby, and I went hiking. We did a Level 4 out of 5 trail for an hour and a half. I'm not sure how many miles it...

Christmas 2005

Christmas was kind of rough on me this year...JC and I had broken up, I had just had my tonsils taken out, I had been deathly ill for months beforehand, and was really kind of just all around desperately depressed...as I'm sure you could tell from previous posts, but this little person with me in all these pictures somehow makes everything better...

2 More Days!!!

Gabby and I get on a plane that leaves at 5:30am on Friday to head to DC to be with Jessica, Eric, and the new dog. I can't wait! Gabby's never been! And she was too little the last time she was on a plane to remember it. Exciting! Last week, Jess' friend Deannie was in San Antonio. We met up for dinner and drinks. Love ya, Deannie!
