WOW

... was i SURPRISED :).

my Beloved threw me a great surprise party yesterday.

almost everyone i wished could be there, with the few exceptions of my family on the west coast and a few friends who got lost in the shuffle. he completely led me totally off-track and every single one of my nearest and dearest played spectacularly along. (this is why i love surprise parties... everyone gets to PLAY...even people who live far away can be in on the SECRET.)

i am dazzled and delighted and totally amazed at the lengths to which this man proved he felt he had to go to deceive me. i am grateful to all my wonderful friends and family who contributed in so many ways... including the creation of the primrose path i was so deceitfully led along!! and i'm really grateful to colin mcenroe himself, who provided an alibi i was perfectly willing to believe!

please join me and laura on blogtalkradio this afternoon - our topic is DIVINATION, ANYONE? but im sure we might mention the party for a few minutes!

and furthermore, the war will end. blessed be.

What was the occasion? Was it your birthday? Oh, Happy Birthday, sweet Annie.
I like surprises, too, but it depends. Some "surprises" was made few minutes ago, made me think that they suddenly realize the day and did something instantly and just called it "I want to surprise you."
But yours was obviously very well planned few days ago. That was a good surprise. Have a many returns of the day, my sweet friend. :)
