my mom got me this



a baileyworks too, but whatever at that



what have you gotten lately?

It was my birthday last Saturday and since all my relatives know i'm a poor college kid, i've got like 170 bucks in the mail in the last week. Shame I've blown it all on pot and beer already, but at least i'm not draining my already strained bank account.

the dude who works in bodega below my apartment heard it was my birthday, so he bought up a case of forties, than he was bewildered when i told him i didnt drink, so he got toe up with my roomates,

my birthdays in a couple weeks so my parents put 100$ in the pot for my new iro. but i think ill just use it to buy some toshis.

a signed copy of "James and the Giant Peach" My mom corresponded with Roald Dahl, mailed him the book and money to mail it back. It was the best birthday present ever. Only time I cried due to a present. 20 plus years later, it is still one of my favorite memories.

The best material: The big red thing in the middle of the picture.

The best overall: A poem my dad wrote for me when I was 10.

my sister always gets me the best books for my birthday.
always an interesting read.

F***in hell, that's ALL I wanted...didn't happen. Yer a lucky dude.
