So, I got a stereo system for my birthday. It's pretty awesome (and way better than my old one. The bass cracked when I listened to fucking BBQ), and I actually have the urge to just drive around listening to music now. Oh wait, GAS IS EXPENSIVE. I never thought I'd get excited as soon as I saw a station selling gas for only $2.83/gallon!

Instead of the requisite movies-and-chips pseudoparty for my birthday, this year will be NEW ORLEANS themed. Jonathan's mom is (hopefully) making gumbo, and we will have all sortsa Crescent City R&B.
