So it was a really good birthday in some ways…not so good in others.<\/p>\n
Eric came home early from work, so I got to spend the day with
\nhim. He even ran errands with me, which he never does. I
\ngot my new sweater cleaned yesterday, so I am wearing it today (it’s
\nreally cute!). I got lots of cards, emails from friends…it’s so
\nnice to be remembered on your birthday! I did have to spend a lot
\nof the day reading papers, but I did get most of them done, so that was
\nalso good. <\/p>\n
Unfortunately, I also found out that I was denied admission to OSU’s
\nEnglish program and that Kelly is too sick to have my birthday party
\ntonight. It’s been postponed until Saturday, but it all depends
\non how she’s recovering by then (she had a BAD cough and 102 degree
\nfever, poor little kid!). So those two bigger issues sort of cast
\na pall over the day for me, but I guess that’s just how it goes
\nsometimes. <\/p>\n
Anyway, my parents are in Columbus today for a meeting, so I don’t know
\nwhat I’ll do for lunch. But I think I have my classes mostly
\nready to go. So it shouldn’t be an overwhelming day. But
\nsince I graded all evening last night, and it wasn’t a thrilling
\nbirthday (and there won’t be a party tonight), maybe I should just make
\ntonight fun somehow. Any suggestions or ideas?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
