    Last year was a milestone birthday. I took a trip to Vegas, with my husband, my sister, and one of our kids, and I had the time of my life.

    It was all the sweeter because I had reached my goal weight and got to wear a gorgeous dress and feel so amazing and attractive.

    This year we are a lot poorer, so I am hoping for a nice purse, hopefully purchased by someone other than me. My last purse was accidentally set ablaze by my husband :noway: :ohwell: :embarassed: (Really. He accidentally let the strap dangle over a lit candle. We are damn lucky it didn't burn down the whole frakkin house)

    my birthday was yesterday, but i didnt get myself anything. i would go with either a tattoo or a gun or both but definitely not the strip club (waste of money) why pay for something you can get for free?


    This is a VERY good point....

    Where can you get free strippers?

    In January, when I am 28 and at least 20lb lighter than today I'm getting myself a tattoo. First of many. And maybe a nipple piercing.

    My birthday was June 18 and my boyfriend rented a Chrysler 300 stretch limo, complete with a bottle of Moet and the decor in my favorite color, and we drove two hours away for my first skydive, and then dinner. What a rush!

    That sounds like an awesome time!!! :bigsmile:

    My birthday's on October 18th; I'll be 52. So I should probably buy myself a rocking chair and park myself on the front porch, eh?

    Another cat maybe?

    I dunno.

    My birthday is actually today, so you can excuse me for seeing the title of this post and assuming it must be all about me. ;)

    I keep things pretty low-key, so my gift to myself was some makeup and the promise of my best body yet by this time next year.

    My birthday is Sept 10, but my anniversary is Sept 17, so I usually don't get anything on my B-Day. This year I bought $49 worth of tickets to the LA County Fair for $5. Hubby says we can go for my B-Day.

    By the way I think the purse thing might be good for you. It worked for the ladies.

    Oooh! I love the L.A. County Fair! I generally don't eat anything there (used to eat the fajitas UNTIL I spotted them chopping huge hunks of butter onto the veggies as they cooked - BLEH) but love the fair all the same. Have fun!

    all you need is a girl that likes to get freaky, and there are millions of them lol (no offense ladies) almost every girl i have ever dated (including the one im with now) has loved to give me lap dances

    Take a vacation to a nearby resort, and while you're out there, get a tattoo of a gun!

    My birthday is next month, and I just got the confirmation email from the Bacara Resort and Spa in Santa Barbara, CA. I built their website earlier this year on a very tight deadline, and still maintain it, so my boss worked out a deal so I could afford a weekend there. My boyfriend and I are also taking it as an opportunity to visit this really adorable little Danish-American town called Solvang, since he's been wanting to take me there for a few years now.

    I'm so excited!

    Mine's at the end of the month, and I'll likely treat myself to a pair of obscenely expensive shoes :-)

    The year before last I bought myself these pretty amazing Michael Kors heels. God I love these shoes.
