Happy Birthday to Toribear!!!!!

Right now I'm picturing the look on my sister's face at 13 should my mom have said to a group of my parents' friends, "It's Jennifer's 13th birthday. She's a great kid, but she does get lippy now and then."

Is it wrong that I'm laughing?




Happy birthday Tori! And everyone else warns your mother about dealing with a teenager, I'll warn you, you're going to have to deal with the mother of a teenager for the next 10 or so years (maybe more, depends on how clingy she gets :p) Good luck to you. :D

We let 13 year olds in here?? ;)

Welcome to Tori - welcome to your teen years. Don't worry, they'll end eventually. :D The other side is the promised land.

Happy Birthday TB!


Is there some other LoT I am not
aware of?

Well, I frequently act like a 12 YO, so I don't see why not.

Happy birthday!

Happy birthday, kid!

When I turned 13, I was wearing a blue corduroy leisure suit and doing my best trained seal impression of a rabbi at my Bar Mitzvah.

You're getting the better deal, believe me.

Happy Birthday! Hope to see you over in the Twilight thread. :)

Happiest of birthdays!

Happy Birthday!

Hey, thanks everyone for the Birthday greetings! (And sorry about your 13th, Boss- that's therapy material there for sure. ;))

She had a blast: we had a bowling party, then headed up the road to a nice hotel near our downtown Riverpark area, where I had reserved two adjoining rooms near the pool. They swam, played Wii and X-Box 360, and Tori got a Wii Fitness setup that was incredibly fun to play with. We just got home a few minutes ago, and now Tori is going to be sending in her LoT sign-up!
