other plans for me

You know, you're birthday is the only day that you are truly justified in shamelessly seeking attention. That was the plan, at least. But my birthday had other plans for me...

In my first class of the day, Turkish 506, a migraine hit-- right as the vocabulary quiz was handed out. I was either in excruciating pain, heavily sedated, or something like a drunkard for the rest of the day-- depending on how much medicine I took and how recently I had taken it.

Luckily, I still got my gray day. That's the thing about my birthday-- I always get a cold front for it, and today was no exception. The sky was overcast, the wind cut and stung, and there was even some minor precipitation. Not a shabby birthday gift.

Tonight, I saw Pride and Prejudice-- the new that's in theaters. I was worried, but unrightfully so. For the time constraints, it is an incredible depiction of one of my favorite books of all time. See it! You won't be sorry-- unless you are a guy-- because in seeing this movie, you will meet face-to-face the man you will never live up to. Sorry, boys. Every girl wants her Mr. Darcy. Sigh...

All in all, and in spite of the migraine-- it was a very nice day. Thank you for all of the cards and phone calls. The 34 Facebook Wall messages were a bit strange, but thank you to you all as well.
