Best. Birthday Present. Ever. -Updated-

For my 31st birthday I got a Dunkin Donuts bumper sticker and a lacy thong in the mail from my aunts and my grandmother.

bday

Seeing as how I can’t imagine the day getting any better, or funkier, I’m going back to bed.

Wait, it just got better.  My neighbor just gave me a bag of coconut m&ms.  I didn’t even know they made such a thing.

Also there’s something mighty suspect in the vegetable drawer…

yogurt

It looks like yogurt with sprinkles and a whole mess of candles, but the last time Ella concocted a “special dessert” out of yogurt it also involved a melted popsicle and a raw egg, all of which she put out in the sun to bake because she is “not allowed to use the oven,” so I plan to avoid this treat at all costs.  The cat can take one for the team, here.

    Well….at least it’s a nice looking thong.

    OK if, like me, your birthday celebration involves copious amounts of alcohol I suggest you stay away from anything involving the thong, Ranger Up, and the bumper sticker. That is a lethal combo that could ruin any future political career plans you and/or Steve may have. Seriously. Or at least get you questionable looks in the car line of eldest child’s v. Catholic school. No amount of crisp hair parting could get you out of that one.

    Happy Birthday Lady. Miss you!

    Happy Birthday!

    I would have died if my grandmother sent me a thong, but then my grandmother thought a thong was a flip flop.

    I am confused by the coconut m&ms. Not surprising since I easily confuse. Is it hard or soft in the middle? Happy Birthday!

    Coconut M/M’s are the bomb…and I’m getting a Dunkin on Ten-ten and Kildare Farm woo-hoo!!
    Happy Birthday!

    And what’s WRONG with a digital camera for your birthday? The bumper snicker, the m&m’s and even the thong are transient, but digital pictures last forever! Just ask anybody that’s posted them on the Internet…

    Hey, now there are two Curt’s….although at least the other one uses the appriate 0.2, which makes me Curt version 1. Although I also like pictures posted on the internet. mmmmmmm

    I hope your birthday involved copious amounts of M&Ms, and serous use of the thong….

    Have a wonderful birthday, and thanks for the entertainment as always.
