A bit of a Setback, but the warm weather has made up for it...

I guess I booked too late for my driving exam..which means, my fabulous Blogger friends, that this Stranger will be taking her exam on June 1st. No matter..since I'll be using my moms Cadillac for the exam, it'll give me more time to get used to it. Hey, at least I'll be taking the exam in style!
Speaking of style, the warm weather as of late has inspired me to dig out my summer clothes and dress nicely. Now that I can afford to, which is fantastic! Plus since I last posted I've lost yet another 2 pounds! I am only 13 pounds from my goal! I love that I no longer have a stomach, and my butts gone down a few sizes too!! I have to say for a gal my age, I still look pretty darn spiffy!!I've been getting some really nice comments lately...and I feel good! Which is probably why I'm up early for once...
Mom and Dad went to Thunder Bay today, mainly to go look for a cage for our Alexandrine Parrott, Cosmo. We need a cage that can be carried easily out to the back deck. I think he'll like the nice weather outside during the day. Yesterday Mom took him out of his cage and brought him outside, and he lifted his wings like he enoyed the breeze thru his feathers..when she brought him back in, he wouldn't stop talking. It was cute.
So I sent my parents on a bit of a mission, and if they can accomplish it despite the fact they're anti-technology, I'll be amazed. A friend found a model of an MP3 player that had a 30GB hard drive, lots of other bells and whistles, and also had a small screen to view videos and movies. And I am paying for it..the puppy'll cost me $400+tax, but I wanted to get it for myself as an early birthday present. Now, some of my friends who know me would say,"Why are you getting it now, when you're birthday is 2 months away?" Well, Dad is heading back out West, and we won't be travelling any time soon. So I may as well get it now, cause I have a shitload of tunes I want to carry with me, because I plan on starting a serious exercise routine. So when I go for my walks I want tunes with me for motivation. So yeah..thats all I wanted for my birthday, and I don't want anything else. A "Happy Birthday" message will suffice.
Well, right now I don't have much else to report from my corner of the world...hmm...Blogger question? Since I'm talking about birthdays...what was the best birthday gift you've got so far? If all your gifts have been shitty up til now, then your ultimate birthday wish? For me, it'll be this MP3 player...please God...don't let the parents forget to stop by Future Shop...
Later!
