Edited on Mon Jun-13-05 02:19 AM by Nailzberg
Okay, my birthday was off to a lackluster start. There's a girl I like and she went out of town for her brother's graduation. I can handle that, it's family, but I was kinda down we weren't hanging out.
But my old roommate called me and invited me to her place to watch a movie with her. It wasn't gonna be an exciting night for me. Until she gave me my gift. "Dreams From My Father", the Barack Obama book. You gotta love having a friend like that.

1. You need help. You really do. |
|
You visit an old "roommate" *nudge, nudge, wink, wink* and you get excited about a book.
Maybe you'd better join the sex-ed threads and get an update.

2. Come on, it was the OBAMA book. |

Not just any book, but BARACK OBAMA's book. And she's a Swedish citizen. So that she knew me well enough, and my dedication to American politics, to get me THAT book, was a shock.
Best present I've ever received.
My parents got me the "The Kite Runner". Close second.
And consider my past birthdays - Two years ago I found out my (ex)fiance was cheating on me. - So the "Best Birthday Present" was an easy award to win.

And now you have something to read that will also remind you of this lovely day! Good for your former roommate! Sounds like she knows you very well...
