My unbirthday

Last night my youngest sister came to town and gave me my birthday present. (My birthday was in August, but we weren't able to coordinate a time to go shopping until now.) She took me to get my nails done, she took me out to dinner at Johnny Carinos and then took me to Sportsmans Warehouse to buy me a sleeping bag. I teased her about being independently wealthy, since she can afford to spend lavish amounts on anything she wants now that she has her settlement money. It was actually a lot more fun than I expected it to be. I was really glad that I could have a good time with her without the background tension about the family problems. My nails are pink sparkly tipped and outrageously long, and my sleeping bag is dark blue with a blue checkered flannel interior.

Tonight my parents are coming to stay with me, and I am trying really hard not to let them stress me out. They are bringing me some software I need, a head-board and foot-board for my bed and a tv that I bought from my older sister. They are taking home a desk and a birdcage, so I guess the trade off is pretty well in my favor. My dad and I will both be attending our class on Saturday up in Rexburg and I am pretty excited about that.
