I don't know...I still feel like I'm 29 (LOL). Julissa surprised me at midnight because as usual she wanted to be the first to wish me "Happy Birthday" and be the first to give me gifts. She got me a Dell E198WFPv 19" Widescreen LCD monitor. I've wanting one for as long as I can remember but since my 20" CRT was still working fine, I couldn't find an excuse to cough up more okane (money) for an LCD. I was joking around one day looking at a Dell catalog and just pointed at this monitor and said "I want one of those for my birthday". Well, she took it seriously.

The bigger impression is how she managed to get the money for it. She gathered the money by asking friends and family that would get me a gift to give her the cash instead and by everyone pitching in she could get me something I will actually like and use; pretty smart, right?
