more presents

i finally got around to taking pictures of

my real birthday presents from nick

you didn't think he only got me roses

and lunch from moe's did you?

no, he's much more extravagant

than that...to a fault.

in fact, it's one of the things we've

disagreed on for years.

just give me a target giftcard and i'm happy,

but he refuses...and gets angry at me when

i get angry at him for buying me such

nice stuff. so without further argument,

i got...

an emerald necklace (my birthstone)

and my very own guitar!

Resolution Update

Learn Guitar? CHECK! (um, if by "check" I mean: has taken 2 lessons and practiced the G Major scale a few times.)

Keep Room and Car Clean? CHECK! (You honestly would not beliiieve what my bedroom looks like 349.8261774 days of the year and I  w i s h  I had taken a "Before" picture, but alas, I did not so here's a picture of my beautiful (and clean!) (and vaccumed!) room which I vow to maintain for at least another 3 days...)

As for my other resolutions?! Ah heck, who am I kidding? I'm lucky my room got cleaned. All in due time...
