I just want everyone to know that you guys made this the best birthday I've ever had. Not because of any one gift given (although I do appreciate everything I got, even if it was just a happy birthday wish), but because everyone chipped in to putting a smile on my face when I needed it most. If anything, the best gift was a new appreciation for how lucky I am to have such wonderful friends. You guys can take one of the worst days I've ever had and turn it into one of the best. That's really special.

So thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, a thousand times, thank you. I only hope that one day, I can help return the favor in kind.

Stupid storms rolling through at 3:30 AM, triggering tornado sirens, forcing us to get out of bed and make for my parents' house to hide in their basement until 5 AM. Considering that I didn't get to sleep until 2 AM in the first place (Z was busy giving me my birthday present ^____^ ), I'm running on fumes and caffeine today... must stay up, though. Things to do, paycheck to deposit, Warlord trade to send off, and tonight, more Naruto to watch with the guys.
