for the record, it is a short two, count'em two, weeks away from my birthday. i will be **(this sampling of sundae silliness will be censored for your safety)** years old. please forward gifts and monetary tokens of adoration to me, care of, well, me. thanks.

also, those who live in the greater lotusland area should contact mike b if they are interested in any festivities. i disavow all knowledge, in advance, of what he's up to, but rumour has it he's up to something. (at this point i would be giggling, if i did such a thing).
