…To my new baby.
You see…boyfriend had promised a curve for my birthday. He and I were going to go halfsies via T-mobile but while I spent the day sitting in a workshop about clinical comparative effectiveness. Which if you don’t know what it is, you don’t want to because it would take me a whole day just to describe it to you.
Instead, I got out of my workshop today around 4 (whats up skipping the closing remarks and the final q&a) and ended up walking up to Gallery Place. It was there that boyfriend told me he had spoken to someone at AT&T on the fone and did I want to consider a refurbished Curve for $50? Well….no. I’m greedy and superficial and I like being materialistic.
So after hanging up with him to have him meet me so we could go see the Colbert Portrait at the National Portrait Gallery before they take it down on April 1, I booked it up to the AT&T store and had one of the better customer service experiences of my shopping career. I mean, it helps when you bond with them because you have the same birthday and you mention your possible purchase will be a birthday present from your boyfriend. You can imagine my surprise when the total turns out to be about $100 less than it was supposed to be. This does not include the mail in rebate which may or may not have made our purchase today…well…free. Free birthday present from boyfriend?? Oh hells yeah. April 2008 my friends? Is going to be a great great great month.
One item on the wish list…check. Now if only I could work on that raise…. I think I might treat myself to something on my list, but I should probably wait till after NEXT WEEKEND!!!!! Yep…TWELVE DAYS!!!!!!! *squeeeeeeeeee* Yes. I squee. I’m really five when it comes to my birthday and making sure the whole world knows about it. Hear that world?? IT’S ALMOST MY MOTHER F*CKING BIRTHDAY!!!!!!!!!! (for those of you who knew me in college…you’ll appreciate that)
I am oh so very behind in bloggy world…who knew that having a life would detach me. But alas, I have not NOT failed Blog365 yet. Cause I? Am awesome. But i am catching up on my google reader which is out of control and considering the next two days are going to be ridiculous at work…I don’t see it letting up any time soon.
Tell me what I’ve missed gals (and guys)??
