Gifties and Such

I'm just popping in to say hullo and show you all the wonderful gifts that have been flung my way in the past couple of weeks.

First, I had me a little party for my birthday... on which I turned twenty-eight radiant years of age. (Just go with it.) The party was Twilight Themed, because I'm a dorkus, but it wasn't theme heavy, no costumes... just some roses and lots of red.

And I got TOYS!

About a week later, one of my artplay chix, Jen, sent me this AWESOME Halloweeny banner through the mail. I LOOOOVVEEE getting treats through the mail.

Isn't it just gorgeous?? I love the glittery letters to NO ONE's surprise.

And THEN, out of the BLU, I get a beautiful painting from one of my favorite artists, Suzi Blu.

At first I thought it was a mistake. Like someone with a name close to mine commissioned Suzi and she got us mixed up, but then I finally noticed the card that I had tossed aside in my excitement.

YOU GUYS! Thank you so much! It was such a cool surprise and WOW is it beautiful! I hung it close to my desk for inspiration.

Currently, I am wearing my thank you socks that were a gift from Tally and Peggy along with a cool pink keychain and a tag book!

Love my thank you socks. I also got more fabulous art from Jen and Sera, plus candy (which I ate too much of) and adorable Hello Kitty stickers from Sera, goodies and a fabulous lavender-smelling, handmade relaxation mask from Ruth.

Oh here it is:

Sometimes I wear it while I listen to a book on tape. It's quite luxurious. Right now I'm wearing it on my forehead because that's just how I roll.

So you guys need to stop giving me presents now. (No you don't.) It's such an embarrassment of riches. (Gimme.)

I am spoiled rotten.

(Yeah, that's true.)
