Saturday March 19 2011- Day 75

I wake up early as usual. I go to talk to my roommate and fall back to sleep in mid conversation. I wake up after 10 to 2 text messages that I return. My roommate gets ready and leaves for a police test. I chill that afternoon resting and watching tv. I dont have any plans for the day. I get up and eat breakfast and lay around. Later I eat lunch and chill on the computer. Later that evening my sister-in-law calls me and tells me she's on the way to come get me to take me to dinner. As I'm getting ready my roommate comes in the door. We talk as I'm getting ready. As I'm finishing up my sister-in-law calls and lets me know she's out front. I rush to try to finish up as my roommate's phone rings. His mom asks to talk to me and I take the phone. She asks if I'm getting ready to leave and I tell her yes. She asks me to hang out for a minute because she needs to give my roommate some bad news. I tell her ok and I hand the phone back to him. She lets him know and my roommate immediately jumps back up and heads out. I finish getting ready and head out right behind him. I rush back in and grab the bag full of clothes I bought for Tati. We drive to Red Lobster and when we arrive my family jumps up from the table. About 15 of them have decided to surprise me with a birthday dinner. I'm happy to see 2 of my aunts my dad and a bunch of my cousins even my cousin Lonnie and her husband David who come up from NC to see me. We have a great dinner and I get a bunch of cool gifts. It is a wondeful birthday and we share lots of laughs and jokes. As I'm holding Tati, Carla asks me to be her godmother. I start to cry and tell her yes. She gives me a ring with Tati's initials in it as my gift from her. I am so happy even though they embarass me by singing happy birthday to me. Ugh. Short of that it has to be the best birthday I have ever had. God bless me to have 60 more of these. I get home and eat some of my cake and a little ice cream and go to bed.
