I’ve got a song stuck in my head, and I can’t seem to get it out. It’s called Happy Birthday. That’s probably because it’s almost my birthday!!!

My actual birthday is on Monday, but the celebration started last night, when Rebecca took me to Outback for dinner and gave me presents. Tomorrow night is my annual birthday celebration at Mex. If you didn’t get an invite, it could mean one of three things. Either it was an oversight, I don’t like ya (Ray), or you live out of town. As I did the last two years, I’m throwing my own birthday party. That way, it’s exactly the way I want it to be.

Last year, it was great until this creepy guy decided that he could creep around my party, pretending he knew me. When I heard him tell someone he knew me, I turned around and gave him a verbal tirade, until my brother came over and said, “Shannon, you’re making a scene!” That guy was cramping my style though. If you see a guy such as this at my birthday party, kick him out before I get a chance to, please.

One interesting tidbit is that I’m turning 27, although, the title of my Evite said “Franny’s 26th Birthday Party.” Kirsten was kind enough to point out that we already celebrated my 26th birthday. I confirmed that with Pat, so Kirsten gets a prize. I woulda figured it out once I got the check for $27 from my gram though. Anyway, I offered Kirsten either a firm handshake or a beer, and she decided she’d take a beer shake. Yummy.
