Birthday wrap up!

Hey! I just wanted to say thanks to everyone at Central for wishing me a happy birthday! That was a fun surprise for me when I logged in this morning. KahlanAmnell (aka Fallon Shadowblade) over at central also got me a birthday cake, grizzleheim, and sorting hat icons for my central profile. hehe. YAY!

Also, WOW it was cool to see the comments roll in during the day on my birthday post yesterday here on my blog. I really appreciate the support you guys give me here at The Friendly Necromancer. Blogging for Wizard101 has been an amazing ride so far; you all are a big reason why a couple of my gifts that I got yesterday are so awesome.

Let me explain by showing a few pictures:



My eyes are gripping for the bump as I receive the traditional "bump on the head" from the birthday present by Kyle. Please tell me I'm not alone with the traditional "bump on the head" birthday song. I really hope generations of lionbloods haven't been the only ones bumping people on the head with their birthday presents. (Man, I really should shave . . . it's been a couple weeks now . . . *scratches chin*) Anyway, you can see this is a framed Malistaire poster. I got that from Professor Greyrose many months ago after I did an interview with her. She has a heart of gold. That was around the same time they gave away signed posters to the first 101 people who made grandmaster after Dragonspyre was released I believe. I think I got a left over from that batch. :-)



And this is a framed article from the Beckett Magazine where I was quoted. LOL! I'm officially an uber sentimental geek now. My wife is awesome for framing these for me for my birthday.



This card was hilarious to me. I'm such a big kid that they have to buy me kid cards and scratch out "kid" and replace it with "dad." Amber explained to me that all the dad cards were really dumb. Thanks, Amber!

Besides that I got some shoes and a couple shirts. We had birthday cake. OH! Which reminds me, I need to go have some birthday cake for breakfast!!!

BYE!

HAPPY DUELING!

I have the biggest smile on my face looking at you holding that framed article! It's really a surreal experience for me, I have to admit.

I'm so glad you had a fantastic birthday experience!

Actually, it was the first 101 people who were/became Grandmaster that the posters were given to.

Anyways, happy birthday!(again :P)
