7. Excellent!!
I just found out today that I am getting an extra special visitor from the south for my b-day in a couple weeks. :bounce: I totally blew the surprise :eyes:.

How are you? You hanging in there? :hug:

9. Yeah...special...
that's the word I'd use if it's the "special" visitor I think it is. ;)

I'm hanging in there. I got my flight to Seattle, I've got places to stay, I've even got a car rented and I've got the time off from work. Now all I have to do is do laundry and pack and then go to Seattle and fall completely apart.

19. You have a safe trip...
peace and love to you and all of Andy's friends and family. One thing I think I can say with some certainty is that he surely knew what wonderful friends that he has.

6. I love that sig line
I always wanted Andy to meet my momma. My fondest wish was to watch "Steel Magnolias" with the two of them since they both quote it endlessly. :)

13. I know he'd be so touched...
by the outpouring of affection and all the kind words about him over the past few days. I know that I am. :) And that is such a good pic of him.

11. Hee...I told her this afternoon...
that part of her birthday present was that I DIDN'T call at 12:01am to play that song at her. :) She laughed.

21. My boyfriends mother turned 64 about three years ago.
She called the radio station herself on her birthday and had them play that song. I thought it was cute. She's a big Beatles fan. As am I and the boyfriend. Thanks for sharing with us!

:hi:

15. I have an ulterior motive...
I'm hoping she sees everyone saying "happy birthday" and her southern manners poke at her til she finally joins DU and actually posts to say thanks. If she posts once we'll have her. :evilgrin:

25. Oh, she already knows...
I've tried every evil plan I can think of to get her to join and post. I've tried guilt, puppy-dog eyes, sarcasm, using her manners against her, even *gasp* just asking nicely. :) She's being hard-headed. (Which explains where I got it from.) ;)
