How in the world can a year have flown by?! I swear I don’t know where the time goes, because I sure as hell don’t seem to be accomplishing all that I want to, but maybe things will be better this year, and I can be more productive. Scootch kicked off Birthday Week by getting me the Amy Winehouse CD when we were in Target Sunday night–I’ve had Rehab on my Pod for eons, and even got the video, but refused to download anymore songs–I just wanted to buy the CD (oh I have been so poor, and there are so many CDs I always want–maybe someday I’ll hit the Powerball, and my dream of all the books and music I want will come true). And although I won’t get to see them for a couple of months in Nashville, Black Crowes tix go on sale the morning after my birthday!!! They’ll be at the Ryman, and I do so love seeing them there–that’s my favorite venue to see them at because the acoustics are just sooo lovely! A tall time will be had by all, I have no doubt! Scootch has been asking me what I want for my birthday, and I just can’t decide, although I do want a laptop, bad, but I doubt that will be happening right now, what with the big Alaska excursion coming down the pike. I know I want the black (white) mask that Bessie turned me on to, and a Clarisonic facial brush, CDs, iTunes cards, and God knows I need a new phone (oooohh iPhone–but they have an exclusive contract with AT&T, and I do loves my Sprint–mainly because Bessie, Mom, Dad, John, and My-Linh all have SPCS, and they do have solid coverage. Ever since they merged with Nextel, their customer service has been for shit, though). Oh well, Suzzann’s about to turn 41, and have lots of fun!
