I had a great birthday! Woo Hoo! Thanks to all of you who made it great with cards and emails and gifts and well-wishes and shout-outs. I do appreciate it!
My family took me down to Baltimore Inner Harbor to celebrate. We ate lunch at my favorite restaurant- the Cheesecake Factory. Any day where you eat at the Cheesecake Factory is a fantastic day! It's famous for its cheesecake, but the food there is divine! The waiter brought me a mini-sundae and then (with my family) sang to me. Yea for me. :)
We walked around the Inner Harbor, watched the Fudgery show, hit some shops (hence the crap hats), and bought tickets for a harbor cruise. We were all amazed that in the 28 years we have lived in Maryland, we have never taken a cruise in the Harbor. It was a lot of fun and a beautiful day.
While we were waiting to board the ship, we all got dessert- some wanted cheesecake and others wanted ice cream. I, of course, got my favorite vanilla bean cheesecake (*sigh*) and enjoyed it immensely.
We were all pretty tired by the time we got to the car and drove home. All in all, it was quite an enjoyable birthday!

- Present I Got That I Never Thought I'd Get: my family had a keyless entry system installed in my car. It's something I've wanted for a long time, but never thought I'd actually get. It's one of those things I found hard to buy for myself. But I sure am enjoying it.
