Liotte! Of course you're not chopped liver at all. You are dear and close to my heart.
The skiing was totally amazing. After taking a day off (ligament) I skied today with 18" of overnight powder. Truly an amazing way to celebrate one's birthday... there are no words to describe what it's like to ski with snow up to your knees... fresh tracks, baby!
The cake was great... chocolate. Drinking wine now. And going to answer the questions that were asked.
Thank you so much to everyone. This is truly special. I really believe that one's birthday is the most important day in one's year, and this has been an amazing day. Your nice thoughts and chocolate martini wishes and sushi have truly made my day. I wish it would've been possible for me to log on as I was skiing today... ok, maybe not...
Now I'm going to answer the questions...
