The wild rumpus

We are but a few minutes from the anniversary of the Phenom's birth. I love how you humans get all happy and celebrate the fact each of you managed to be born and survive each passing year.

I especially like the whole notion of gifts and special foods. So, this afternoon, I made a batch of the Phenom's favorite Molasses Spice Cookies. I've been doing the whole "wait on hand and foot" routine. And, I have gifts. I love giving gifts. And, I suck at keeping secrets. I've had the most excellent birthday gift for the Phenom for several weeks now - and haven't managed to spill it yet. But, these last minutes are just killing me.

I got the Phenom a Phenom Bobble Head. And, it is an amazing likeness.

And, damned if the Phenom has the patience to wait until the actual birthday to open gifts. And, I am not talking midnight -- I'm talking not until waking up the next day sort of nonsense.

I just might be totally crazy by tomorrow morning. Keeping secrets takes it out of me.
