happy birthday, mom!!!

today is my moms birthday:) woohoo! i bought her a crockpot, because i am a nice daughter. anyway, this morning, i was still at bethany with eric. we got up really late, got dressed, and i came home--not a whole lot of excitingness happened...well, to the average person. i, personally, think that just spending time with my eric is exciting!!! anyway, i hung around here for a while. it was quiet, and the fuzz and i finally spent some quality time together. the brothers were off somewhere with the youth group. i went to dinner with my parents at cracker barrel. i forgot my cellular telephone at the house, and was in quite a distress all night about it. then, we had a horrible waitress...(have i been hanging out w/ you too much eric!? ...no way!) but, the food was good. i ate chicken on a salad and drank some sprite. then, we went and picked up timmy and matthew from the church. we came back to the house, and i got my phone back! but i was being weird, and wouldnt let me talk to eric:( we ate some cake, and my mother opened her presents. she liked the crockpot a lot. yay! she also got a paper shredder...fun! and a loaf of bread, among other things. now, im blogging. nothing else thrilling happened to me today. i miss eric. but, i just saw him this morning. oh well, i miss him already anyway. i cant handle this being an hour away from each other thing. its no fun. were not even an hour away at the moment, because im at home...but, its the same thing; i still have it hanging over my head that i dont get to see him until next weekend. blah. and, now theres...the spain thing. but thats far away. sorta. maybe ill go study abroad in spain next fall semester too.
