Happy Birthday Tiffany! I actually got you something, but have once again failed to send it in a timely fashion. I'm going to the post office soon, so I'll be sending your present shortly. We'll see which you receive first. This message, or the package. LOL

Today is Robin's birthday! Happy Birthday to you! I'm sorry your birthday did not fall on a Friday this year, but Tuesdays can be pretty cool too. And by cool, I mean totally lame! I'm sure your birthday will be FAB no matter what day of the week it falls on. It's just Tuesday the 13th, does not sound as wicked cool as Friday the 13th. The ( Read more... )
