A Fabulous Birthday

Today is my birthday!

This is a photo of me (and my mom) when I was a baby.


This is a photo of me now.


Have I changed much?

They say a lady never reveals her age, so I'm not going to tell you. Let's just say I am no longer 25 but I am younger than 27.

Today my parents are taking me to a movie and then to one of the nicest French restaurants in town. Hopefully that will all go stress-free.

Tomorrow, Rian is taking me out to a fancy seafood restaurant to celebrate. I am definitely looking forward to that!

I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas.

I was snowned in with my parents for two nights because of a blizzard that hit my city. All the streets were shut down. I watched movies in pajamas for most of the time, and the other part was spent getting drunk with my mom.

Santa was kind to me, which was nice. I got Confessions of a Shopaholic on DVD, a pair of silver earrings, two cocktail rings, and some Victoria's Secret underwear (haha). And then my mom and Rian got together and bought me a really cool digital camera! Yay!

I hope you all have a lovely day!

Happy happy birthday sweetie, I hope you had a wonderful time celebrating and you are beautiful, truly!

Woa girl we are so alike. I live by a train station & work right by train station. It's the same railway just two different towns & stations. Have you ever seen the movie "Ghost World"?? It's a train but there is a bus in the movie where the girl sees this guy waiting for the bus everyday & she wonders where that bus will take her. =) I think you'd like it. =)

Damsels said...

glad to hear you had a great xmas and birthday

how do you feel about having them so close together? ive always wondered what that would be like

Barry said...

Okay way off topic Jen, but I was talking with Sandy tonight about how great it would be to meet some of our blogging friends f'real. Of course Melanie and your name came up.

So...if you ever decide to come up to Toronto (hey, a guy can dream can't he?) just know that we have a spare guest room we'd be happy to put you up in for a couple/few days. Consider us your 'home away from home'.

I know we'll all meet one day, and toast to friendship. :)

PS: Good thing I'm married, or this would come across completely different. Hahaha!!
