I had a pretty awesome birthday yesterday. ^_^

We went to a deli/bakery/restaurant in St. Paul for brunch.
I had been craving a pastrami sandwich all week, and my mom was told that this place would have good pastrami.
I got a pastrami sandwich on light rye with a pickle, cottage cheese, and cherry lemonade.
It was all very tasty.
After that, we went straight to a single-screen movie theater that makes their popcorn with real butter.
We saw Bolt, which I must say is probably one of the most adorable animated movies I have seen in a long time.
Plus, there was the little Cars short-film beforehand that was just... so perfect and hilarious.

Then we went home.
My parents walked the dogs, while I took my picture for my February project.
Then we went and tried a sushi place for dinner.
It was pretty good, and I loved that almost every single song that played while we were there was Beatles. =]
After that, we went to Culver's for sundaes (and my mom got deep fried spicy cheese curds).
Then we got home and watched Kung Fu Panda.
My parents also told me about the last present they're getting me.
It's a customized camera bag!
I'm so excited. =D

I also got one other present from them today.
I had asked my mom to put an album by Eren Cannata on my wishlist.
She apparently made other arrangements.
She got me a signed copy of the album, and an autographed picture!!
Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!

So that's all awesome...
But sadly, my kitty's a bit under the weather right now. =[
I really hope she gets better soon....

And I'm currently having a pretty good day. =]

Stayed up past midnight.
My friend Sara was the first to wish my a happy birthday... it was actually a little creepy.
The second the clock hit midnight, she messaged me.
There was much discussion and comment on that.
Then delilah_wood called me... then my grandparents and my aunt called me.
And my parents brought me a lemon tart. =D
I opened a couple cards, one of which was a seasons' greetings and happy new year card... which was... confusing... at best.
I also got a shirt from Frang that entertains me quite a bit.
And an e-card from Dusty that we've actually watched multiple times 'cause it's really, really funny.
This morning, I got a bunch of stuff from my parents:
Dr. Horrible on DVD
Dragon and Tiger long-sleeved shirt
Grey crop vest and whit shirt
New headphones
8GB CF card
Camera remote
New anime series
Blue pants

I also got an awesome ski jacket and ski pants from our friend Karen.

A bunch of Minnesota people have written birthday wishes on my facebook wall.
And my stage manager from Bard.

Now I'm waiting to go shower and then go out for a tasty brunch. =]
