The tiaras are so pretty!!
It's my estimation that... every man ever got a statue made of him, was one kind of sumbitch or another.

That's very responsible of you, Nora. When do you move in? That's after closing, withor without slapping the sellers, right? I really know nothing about this whole process.
Sparklies! Pretty. All pretty. And sparkly.
Aw, nice cute boy.

Dinner was fantastic. YUM!! I even ate tomato and liked it!
I had rack of lamb. And this crepe thing that would have been good, except it was kind of soury and I don't like sour. BUT! They comped my dessert and Mom's. Food. EXCELLENT. Waiter was both cute and funny. He got a very nice tip.
Dad gave me my card at the table. And it was teh best present he's ever given me. Dad's not very demonstrative and he doesn't express his feelings well or at all. ANd since his break up and heart attack he's been changing. And I started to cry in the restaurant.
I was going to lock it down in my lj but I want y'all to read it.
The card says "On your Birthday Daughter: My little girl is all grown up but each year on this day. I remember hust how wonderful it felt to look into your newborn eyes and hold you in my arms with so much love I thought my heart would melt."
And Daddy wrote:
It shows a mother on the front of this card, but the same thing is true for fathers. I clearly remember that this was the wya I felt when I first saw you . The doctor brought you out to me in the wiaitn groom, and you not yet fully cleaned up from being born. In that instant I eflt bonded to you and realized that I loved you totally and unconditionally forever. and for all the annoying, asggravating, and upsetting was a parent's lvoe an dcaring can manifest itself, I apologize to you and sympathize wht you and beg you not to lose sight of the love that is there.
And that (plus one other night recently) is really the most emotion he's shared with me and now Ithink that maybe he doesn't know that I love him unconditionally as well. I need to write him a card.

The dinner was yummy. Really.
Mom and I had the house salad, which included tomatoes grown by the restaurant. Dad had the poached pear salad (which I will have if I ever go again) -- poached pear, goat cheese, procuitto, bitter greens, this dressing that was amazing.
Mom had steak, mashed potatoes and aspargus. Dad had macodamia cursted halibut with this amazing coconut somethign sauce and risotto (that wasn't all that) and green and white aspargus. I had lamb. Wiht the crepe thing that was sour.
For dessert Mom had chocolate creme brule cake -- a rolled cake with creme brule in side. Dad cheated on his salad and dinner so he had Orange cranberry sorbet. And I had flourless chocolate cake.
We all shared. And I have to say that alternating bites with the tangy, cold sorbet and the dense rich cake was amazing.
Plus the waiter -- cute.
And I got a folding hammock for my yard ! (not from the restaurant or the waiter, but as a present).

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
I just merrily skipped everything since Monday. It's my Buffistaversary today.
Did you send it to sean(dot)kozma(at)gmail(dot)com?This explains why Seanie no longer loves me. I should maybe update...
Laura, so sorry to hear about the tablet theft.

Deena, I think a handmade tiara would be cool. You've got great design sense and I think anyone who got a tiara from you would be bragging forever that you made it.It would be the bestest tiara ever.
I think I like a boy.Whoot!
And Daddy wrotet sniffles That is so lovely... Happy birthday askye!
So... We have Too Much Candy, do we also have Too Much Color and is it as fun? Because I just colored my hair and got distracted. I was going for demure and subdued, but with double the time I might end up brazen. It certainly wouldn't be the first time.
