Today was my birthday. I’m 16 now. I get my driver’s license Thursday, and I have Thursday off from school (parent confrences), so I’ll mainly be celebrating then. But I do have a car to drive, which I took to Maaco today to be refinished. It’s a 1982 Chrysler LeBaron convertible, white exterior, maroon interior. Only about 5000 of these cars were made. So that’s my main birthday present (the car and the paint job), but I also got some other presents today, including a check from my grandma and 3 books: The Meaning of Star Trek, Star Trek: Adventures in Time and Space, and Cliff Notes Quick Study Guide for Geometry,which I received due to a recent report card. :o
Also, Thursday night, I’ll be going to a fancy restaurant across the causeway (Sanibel Harbor), which will be nice.
So what was your 16th birthday like?

Happy Birthday, Señor Sanibel. Have a beer. Uh, better make that a root beer. Anyway, good luck getting your licence. (Does your horn work? I couldn’t get my licence until I got my horn fixed.)
Happy Birthday! Mine was a lot of fun! I got a beautiful silk dress and had a great party. My first car was a 1965 Buick Special that I bought for 200.00 with my birthday money. I drove it for exactly seven years and then gave it away.
