My birthday

Well so far turning 23 hasn't been all that exciting. I have come to the conclusion that once you turn 21, you don't have very many "exciting" birthdays until you're 25. And, that's only because you get a discounted rate on car insurance. Then, of course after that it's only 30, 40, 50, 60, etc. So, I have just been trying to relax all day today and just soak up the fact that my husband actually has to do things for me today without me even asking (allthough, I have had to ask him to make me lunch).

I have gotten some really good birthday presents- a grill from my parents, money from my nana and papa, money from my mother in law (to spend on just me- YEAH!), earrings from Ryan (the "other" presents he says are coming later), and just verbal happy birthdays. I think that the best present I have gotten though was Ryan coming home in July. Now, I know that July was a long time ago. But, this is a present that keeps giving itself to me everyday (whether it's my birthday or not). And, I'm afraid that if he wasn't here today I wouldn't have gotten any happy birthday love from anyone!

Ryan is taking me out to dinner tonight, which will be nice. Then, next weekend we are (hopefully) going to Six Flags in Atlanta. In Atlanta, we will be able to go to some clubs and dance a bit, maybe hear some jazz music or something.
