So, I turned thirty on Sunday. That happened.
It was actually one of my better birthdays in recent memory. Got a call from my little sis in Washington and my cousin Jimmy both wishing me wishes. My mom's friend, Johnny, came for a visit (I never get to see him, and he's such a sweetheart, so that was an unexpected bit of awesome). My other little sis came over with Chinese food and had dinner with me and the folks.
And I've always been terrible at gifts. I suck, hard, at offering meaningful input when people ask me what I want, and I usually feel kind of weird accepting them anyway, which makes things awkward. But the gifts I got this year were mostly stuff I actually needed, which was awesome. Needed that new mouse badly. It's sad enough needing one with a laptop, but my touchpad doesn't work. The mouse I had didn't work plugged into the solo functioning USB port on the laptop. The fix for this was plugging an old Apple keyboard into the laptop's port, then plugging the mouse into the port on the keyboard... It was kind of ridiculous. But I got a new mouse and a little USB hub that looks like a stick-figure man.
He's actually kind of adorable. I'm thinking of naming him. lol
