So I have woken up a year older today than I was yesterday! The sun is shining and the sky is blue and although I am still staring at a computer screen like on any other day at least it will be sunny when I get outside later.
So how have I started my Birthday - with greens of course! I know, I am a health geek. In fact, I have got two huge bottles racked up on my desk giving me four litres to enjoy.
I also got some very cool presents today. From my lovely girlfriend I got:
- A Navman - which is a personal GPS for when you are running - it tracks exactly where you are and where you have come from so that you can accurately see how far you have run/walked/skated etc. I am really getting into 10k (haven’t got the time for another marathon) so being able to accurately measure speed over a specific distance will be amazing! Can’t wait to try it out!
- An electric razor (Braun) - which will shave minutes off my get-ready-in-the-morning-time (brilliant pun there, I think you will agree)
- A dermalogica skin kit - I know…
- A $50 gift voucher at my favourite music store, Leading Edge in Mosman
- A NSW Lottery Gift Set - I won $6 on the scratch card which will buy me a whole extra 3 scratch cards - if you don’t see another blog post it means I won big!
- Some English fudge (don’t tell anyone)
And from our friends who have been kipping in our spare room for the past week, Mark and Helen, I got a Spanish Guitar Flamenco Tuition Book! So if you don’t see another blog post it means I have run off with a Spanish dance troupe.
Anyway, so it has been a great day so far! I hope the other ‘coolest people on earth’ who were born on the 21st April (including my Aunt Sharon and the Queen of England) are having a groovy day too!

Happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you, happy birthday dear Ro-os, happy birthday to you!
My dearest friend’s birthday is April 21st. His name is Eddie and he is VERY cool indeed.
You got some fabulous gifts!
That was a funny pun.
I want some of that fudge.
You are one health-NUT, all right.

Ooops! I meant Ro-oss. Where’s your edit button, anyway?

Thanks Holly!
Not sure where the edit button it - it is there for me?! Must be a wordpress thing…

That Navman is nice gift! Wow!
What’s with the derma thingy?!
How does the fudge work with the Navman? Is it fudge powered?

Cheers John! Hope you all had a day that was as good as mine!

Hey Tincap!
Yep the Navman was an awesome gift - I have taken it out for a spin a couple of times and it is so good!
I have also been using my dermalogica set and I have to say, my skin is very soft and smooth now - so if that was the intention then it has also been a good gift!
As for the fudge…if you are referring to me as the navman, then yes, it has been powering me for two days now…heh
Just visited your site too - looks like you have got some really great posters and ideas over there!
