31

Today I turn 31. I'm having a great birthday day so far, with lots of time in the morning for reflection and work-at-home, and then tutoring and a birthday dinner with friends. Eric has lots of fun presents for me--books, a video, and I believe earrings, though he's saving those until the end of the day, enjoying dragging out the gift giving process as much as possible. It's a sunny, crisp day, and I just finished listening to a great "This American Life" show while I cooked myself lunch and ate and cleaned up. And I was sung to by a duo in California. A really great day in all.
