Sunday of my Life

OK, so my 21st birthday occured 2 days ago now; strangely it was right on schedule. Whoda thunk?

Despite the fact that according to some people I didn’t do anything, I thoroughly enjoyed myself. Caught up with old friends, spent my time with my family and was generally showered with love and/or gifts. I got:

• A gold and stainless steel watch with silver hands and a metallic blue face. Nice big numbers for those of us (me) who are slowly going blind
• Season 1 of the Simpsons on DVD (from Peta, see below comment)
• The Whitlams Years 1992 - 2004 DVD (Got this one from Erin, have I ever mentioned I love my sisters?)
• A Plush Blue Heeler from Dorothea which I’ve named Maguire in memory of a long-lost and much loved Blue Heeler that used to live with my grandparents.
• A LanBoy Case from Drewboy
• Various and sundry cards, cash and wellwishes from friends and family alike

All in all I really did enjoy myself, and that’s what really counts in the end, not the size of the party I throw (or don’t throw in this case) or how many people I have around for the event. I’ll be out with the family this saturday night at a very nice local italian resturant. Dorothea said it to me again today, and now I really do believe her: There are people around here who do love me.
