So it's my birthday! I figured it would be a great opportunity to give an update on all things me...:-) I really don't feel any older... I don't want to let myself get old. I know people who are my age who seem much older than I am. I don't think it's a maturity issue though... I know I am mature, I just love to be goofy and have a good time. Anyway that's a little update on what's in my brain but I'm gonna talk a little more other stuff this time.
This time 23 years ago my mom was not having fun...
Today my friends from Morgantown sent a birthday package that blew me away with the level of thoughtfulness and love that was in that little box!!! I'm continually impressed by them! It worries me that the life changes I'm going through now, and will go through it the next few months, will grow us in different directions... I know we have one thing that draws us together that we can never lose!
My teammates are pretty great also!!! They used their negative baking skills to whip up some cupcakes last night for my bday complete with purple turds on top. They tried to make it a surprise but they aren't very smooth:-) I love them though, and I can already see bonds developing that will carry us through the rough patches of getting on each others nerves. I included a pic at the top of us doing our signature three way high five! The patent is pending on that so no one steal it!
My parents and sisters are also pretty great! They have been so supportive of this whole endeavor even when they weren't sure if it was the best idea ever! I love them more than they know and love the people they are and are becoming! I really miss them... My phone was blowing up before I was out of bed this morning cause my Dad was calling to wish me a happy birthday. Kayla wrote on my wall on facebook way before I ever thought about waking up(3:00am our time). She also attached herself so much to my cause that she applied to be a campus rep at her school! She's becoming an amazing person who IS going to change the world! I have absolutely no doubt!!!
Anyway, Just watched the video from the Morgantown crew!!! Tiff, if you made that, I do hate you, but for making me cry in front of everyone.!.!.! Love ya though, and you continue to inspire me with you life and your words of wisdom! Thanks for listening to me complain with an open mind and asking the right questions!
I'm gonna go enjoy the moment,
~D

Awww... D. I'm glad you enjoyed your "birthday in a box" (I have a patent pending on THAT one)> You can hate Tara though because she is the one who put forth the painstaking effort to find every embarrassing photo of you on the planet, put music to you and put it in a slideshow.
We love you so much and miss you tons here. I'm so proud of what you are doing and that you haven't let the negativity or skepticism from anyone (myself included on some things) beat the dreamer out of you. I have much to learn from your ability to persevere in dreaming and from you in general.
