Birthday Week Part I

Yesterday was my birthday and therefore I reached the age of 30 and yesterday was also the day that ended birthday week. I am sure everyone knows that I get a whole week to celebrate my birthday and this year was no different. I took complete advantage of my full week. It was also a fabulous week and there is so much to talk about that I am not going to do it all in one post. Sorry, but this will be a two parter; maybe, even a three parter. Last Wednesday Andy surprised me with my birthday gift. He usually can’t pull off a surprise because I figure things out very easily, but this time he got me. I was just as thrilled with the fact that he surprised me as I was thrilled about the gift. Andy got me the tuner I needed to hook up Sirius satellite radio in my car, plus the subscription. My car is already equipped with satellite radio so I didn’t need the little radio box for your car with wires hanging everywhere. I just needed the tuner that gets plugged into my trunk and I asked for it for my birthday. Andy didn’t think it would be fun to wrap a “tuner” so he plugged it in my trunk while I was in the shower last Wednesday. He thought he was running out of time so he didn’t get to program the radio. He was trying to figure out how he could take my car without being suspicious. Well, that same day when I came home from work I mentioned that I need more windshield wiper fluid for my car and I was a little whiney about it. Hey, it’s monsoon season and my window gets pretty dusty and dirty. When I got out of the shower Andy decided to suggest that he go get the fluid for me. I was a little confused that he offered because that’s not really Andy’s style. He said it was my birthday week so he was just being nice. Well, then he asked for my keys because he wanted to take my car because it’s more “fun” to drive. While he had my car he got the radio programmed and he got my windshield wiper fluid and filled my tank. When I got in my car in the morning and pulled out of the garage I noticed the radio was programmed to 80’s on 8; which is awesome that he put that much thought into it. Andy knows I am a big fan of 80’s music. I have to give kudo’s to Andy for such a great gift and he delivered it with creativity. Following my birthday gift we finished the birthday week off with a weekend in Vegas from Friday until Sunday…
