Aw, someone gifted me with an LJ-rose! Many, many kisses to you, whoever you are! :)

ETA: Darcy brought home a bouquet of real roses (red, pink and yellow) and a very pretty little crystal vase! ::melts::

Ok - I just turned on LJ - and discovered that I have a paid account!!!!!! ::runs around in circles squealing::
