Wow, this is the best page ever.

:D:D:!:
Thank you all for posting, it made me feel really loved. Don't worry, I know it's all from pitty, but I have no problem with that.
I had a great birthday.
Fletcher, Jennie, Jason and I met at my house around 3pm. I opened presents from my family which included a Russian doll sweatshirt

, a pair of really pretty earrings and a matching necklace, a camera (which I asked for), two 1 GB memory cards, and a camera case. Wow.
PowerShot SD1100 IS DIgital Elph. It's pink.
I was blindfolded for a 20 or so min. car ride.

(that's how happy I was combined with how car sick I felt b/c of the blindfold.

) We arrived and I got out of the car and took the blindfold off. I was slightly blinded by the bright sun, and the first thing I saw was a trailer park across the street. "Where are we," I asked. Fletch answered, "We're in Watsonville." I turned around and we were standing in front of a shooting range.

I'd had no idea what that we were going to go shooting, good surprise! The four of us took turns shooting and it was really fun.

The picture makes me look like a terrible shot, which I am, but I'm standing in front of all the body shots and the few head shots are cut off. Don't worry, this guy is totally dead.
Jennie suggested we go to the fair ground to see the stock car races since we were so close. On the way, we stopped for fast food (which I hardly ever eat and Fletch never eats) at Jack in the Box. MMmmmmmm, seasoned curly fries. MMmmmmmm.
We got to the race track and Jennie and Jason got beers and bought me a Smirnoff Ice. We walked up the bleachers and sat down near other people. I'm really glad we didn't do what I would have done if I were there by myself, which is sit near the front. Every time the cars went around, large
chunks of dirt would fly into the bleachers. About 5 seconds after the bigger cars drove by dust would fly into the stands and get into my eyes. Like, every single time unless I kept my eyes closed for the whole race. It was awesome.
We came home and J&J bought an ice cream cake from Baskin Robins.
So that was my middle-America birthday; shootin' guns, fast food birthday dinner, stock car races and an ice cream cake.
Expect a bunch of pictures from me in the future, because I know I'm going to go camera crazy.
