APRIL FOOL'S!!!

This was the BEST birthday, um, in a very long time. I was going to say EVER, but I think my 30th was perdy damn good, too. So was my 20th...I was in Vienna for that one...ah, good times...no foolin'!

39 Fun things to do/see/get when you're a fool and want to celebrate it:

1. Waking up to a GIANT pot of brewed NM Pinon coffee
2. Drinking all 48oz of #1---powered me through #s 3-39
3. Skate for 4.5 hours, 1.5 hours of that on your very own private sheet of ice (I should just stop there because it couldn't possibly get any better than that!!!)
4. Getting half an hour and a Sk8nSht comp'ed by rink guy because it's my Day! (Oh, that's almost as good as #3.)
5. Laughing hysterically with teammates at 5:15AM lesson...KB going ass-first over the pads, into the net...
6. All my fav songs played at the rink and volume at the max!
7. No other coaches & students during my lesson. (Very close to being as good as #3.)
8. Fruit basket from my mama (I knew I should have stopped with #3!)
9. Fruit basket with ONE York Peppermint Patty. (Things that make me go, "hmmmm...")
10. BOD made up for #8/9 by making me HOMEMADE strawberry cupcakes (YUMYUMYUM!)

28. Card from my boss that says, "Wishes for a great day to a fool...no foolin'!" He's a funny guy!
29. Basket of blooming perennial bulbs (my fav) from mama---to make up for #8/9? No! It was BOGO at the floral shop! No kidding.
30. Gift card for a spa-pedi from my staff! And it's at my fav salon! They are awesome!
31. Hearing my 8-yr old nephew sing, "Happy Birthday to you, you're a hundred and two, you look like a monkey and you live in a zoo...or maybe you smell like one too!"
32. Didn't care for the 102 part in #31...he's 8, what does he know?
33. Favorite work colleague singing to my voice mail box from her hospital bed, at the top of her lungs in her narcotic-induced state, at 3:15AM, "HAPPY, um, DAY, ah, BIRTHDAY, and...ah...oh, yeah, B-girl! Happy something, um...yes, right, HAPPY! HAPPY!" Don't panic. Narcotics are prescribed and necessary for horrific bike accident.
34. No management meetings at work for one whole day. (Nearly as good as #3, but not quite. Need more of #1 to get through them.)
