Birthday fun (a little early)
Well, I was lucky enough to have one of my best birthdays ever yesterday, even though I don’t turn 19 until tomorrow.
Yesterday afternoon my three grandparents and one of my uncle were all in the same house for the first time in years; I got to see them all at once at home. It was great talking to them all at once and getting to see everyone again. I felt like it was easier to talk to them when there was a group there instead of just one or two people.
And of course, I got some really great presents, and some really great cake and ice cream. I received PHP 4 Bible, a very nice custom-embroidered University of Maine blue polo shirt, a color reprint of my favorite newspaper photograph ever, SimGolf, a headlight/taillight combo for my bike, a Borders gift card, and some cards and money. Not to mention, of course, the iMac I’ll be receiving soon. 
Above all, it was great to go home, see my parents, Jemma, and my relatives, and just relax for a weekend. I didn’t even have any homework, so it was a great experience.
