My Birthday Present?



I like surprises, I honestly do. If you ask my boyfriend, or my friends - they might tell you otherwise. It's not that I DON'T want to be surprised, it's that all of my friends and family and boyfriend all cave SO easily when I ask them a simple question like: 'whatcha doin'?', 'where are you going?', or 'whatcha buyin'?'... they don't need to tell me what they're doing/buying, where they're going, or what they're planning, etc. etc. etc... but they do. Then I'm flooded with all of the comments like 'Faith, you NEVER LET ME SURPRISE YOU', or 'Faith has to know EVERYTHING, alllll of the time... so I can't plan anything in secret or surprise her, ever'. This is not my fault. I'm just putting it out there.

Well, blog people, it's nearing my birthday, and these kinds of conversations have already begun... primarily with my better other half, Justin. He's started taunting me about my birthday present, and now I kinda sorta maybe totally absolutely want to know.. but it's because he brought it up. Ignorance is bliss, people. But if you say something... I'm totally going to want to know. It's science, or something. Whatever. This is what took place yesterday...






So, not to brag.. but I'm totally getting a penguin for my birthday. So you should probably just be jealous. (For the record, Justin made it very very very clear that I will in no way-shape-form be getting a penguin).

Happy Friday, y'all.

I feel like now is a good time to tell you that some of my friends and I use "penguin" as a code word for "fart."

YOU'RE GETTING A PENGUIN therefore I shall get you dead fish, which you can feed to your penguin. I recommend "Lindsay" as a middle name.

Sorry. I had a really great comment all worked up and then I came here to write it and ready Juliette's comment about farts and I just forgot everything I was going to say...

But do know, that from now on, I will choose to ignore your badgering questions just to make you suffer, or something. But totally not in a mean way because I do love you lots

OIhhhh that's great. My birthday is on 10/1 and I haven't gotten any clues. Can't wait to see pictures of your penguin! ;)

I'm hoping he throws something penguin-ish into your birthday present now.
