Birthday Fun
Mood:  celebratory
Topic: birthday
I got some awesome birthday presents. I wanted to thank everyone who got me stuff because - you didn't have to!

Here's the tally so far:

Flat panel monitor - this was from my parents. I've been wanting one forever so that my monitor doesn't need to take up the entire desk. Also, I like that they are genreally sharper in colour and can be mounted on the wall
$25 amex card - from my uncle Jose, it's good anywhere Amex is taken and I'm able to buy stuff by combining it
$20 best buy card - from Ash - you REALLY didn't have to...thanks a ton - this is, again, something that I can use to get anything I want or combine with the amex card to get something bigger than either could get get
CD from Japan - from my parents - how can you beat this? you can't just get this without going there unless you pay the import price...thanks!
Seinfeld collector's box set - from Dan - I really wanted this and I don't think I would have been able to get it any time soon
new chain - from my grandmother on my mom's side - I've had the other once since elementary school, it was time for a new one.
