For the second birthday in a row, I woke up next to this guy. I think that I will make that my new birthday ritual.

He gave me a very frivolous, wonderful present.

I named her "Babeez", as I name all inanimate objects that I love some flavor of "Baby" (1986 Baby Blue Saab 900 = Baby, 2007 7 speed Jamis Commuter = Baby II, Brown and Lime Green Zune = Babeez).
Here she is next to the coat that I knit her

My son (with the help of my mother) got me a giant sewing machine bag filled with new yarn, a pattern book, all manner of new needles, and other accoutrement. I love it!

Randi and Jacob took us out to dinner last night and I was gifted with some beautiful hand spun yarn and another Jacob Degering original for my collection. So awesome! I am going to knit the mat for the picture then we're going to frame it. He said that I could pretend that the girl in the painting was a hot stenciled version of me.

I think that I will use this new journal as my knitting journal....

I know that I'm only 1 year into my 30's, but I have to say, they aren't half bad. I feel more confident, more secure, fitter, happier, more productive.....comfortable. If I could ask anything of my 31st year, it would be; Let's take 30, replicate all the good, learn from all the bad, and lose 10-15 pounds you fat fuck! That would be perfection.

Psh, fat fuck. Whatever.
I'm glad it was good. :)
Is it okay if I bring your present for Christmas?
Absolument. We can do an exchange, since your bday is in 9 days.
happy b-day!
Shoooot. Now I feel stupid for not remembering your birthday date.
Nine days isn't a long time.
ObRay got me a really cool present that will come in the mail, he says.
