What do you do for Stevie's Birthday?

[StevieNicksEO17]

Well, I have been listening to Stevie all day, but that's nothing new. Right now it's Stand Back from Live in Boston becuase I love this version.

My friend came over last night and we made t-shirts for her birthday! ROTFL, okay no one laugh... On the front it says Happy Birthday, Stevie Nicks! (I wanted it to just say Stevie, becuase I never say her last name, but Krystle said no one will know who she is without the last name... okay, fine.) And on the back up by the neck it says May 26th, 1948. Down lower it says "No one knows how I feel, what I say, unless you read between my lines." and than under it it says ~Stand Back~ Then we cut up the sides of the shirt and tied it, so it looks all fringy (I guess you'd have to see). It's really neat.

I walked into Algebra and my FM and Stevie loving teacher was writing the date on the board. she was like OMG! Today's the 26th! Stevie's birthday! I was like "yeah, didn't you see my shirt?!" So she thought it was really cool and then we talked about what concerts we were going to.

My friend has the same teacher 4th hour, so I walked her to the class and my teacher said she wanted a picture of us in our cool shirts. LOL

I was sitting in 7th hour and this girl Lauren asked me what my shirt said. So I showed her and she's like "Oh, that's cute." Another girl spoke her two cents and goes "Does he go to our school?" All I did was blink and stare at her and people around us starting laughing histerically. I was like "Do you know who Fleetwood Mac is?" and she goes "Yeah, of course. They sing that one song, Black Velvet." I was like ummm no. And she turned back around. None of my teacher, besides my first hour knew who Stevie was. I swear, they live under a rock!

I hope you liked all my stories LOL

I took Stevie Nicks CD to school today and played them for my students. Then afterwards, we had an end of the year/Stevie Birthday Party with water gun fights, pizza, and ice cream. Tonight, I'm going to watch some Stevie videos: Red Rocks, I Can't Wait, etc.

Sidenote: One of my fourth grade students is a huge Fleetwood Mac/Stevie Nicks fan. The legacy continues!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Come on over! Storytellers at 8 PM! LOL Bring your own shawl!

Bummer for you that they didn't play it, but I would have missed it, anyway. I'd be there for Storytellers, but I didn't get out of here til 2am last night!

Stevie all day for me too, and tonight a mix of Mirage video, The Dance, Destiny Rules and Live in Boston. Happy Birthday Stevie!

Oh yeah, today is the 7th anniversary of me becoming a homo-ner. I closed on my house May 26, 1998, and NO, I did not plan it that way!

Thanks, I try. I always try to do something fun at the end of the year that is special for each class. The last day is tomorrow, and it is a half of a day. Therefore, we had to do it today (to have enough time), and so I decided to make it a Stevie Birthday combo. I told them all about it being her birthday, before we listened to the CDs. The kids really liked it. Of course, they would probably say they did, because they know I'm such a big fan. Of course, like I said in my previous post, I have a big student fan in my room as well, so it made it even more special.

I don't have anything special planned. I do have a few chocolate cupcakes, however. I could have some of those and listen to the 5/10/2005 show. I also bought some new DVD copying software that I am going to install. I hope that it solves my problem and I can burn all DVDs. I guess that I will see later.

I had a few co-workers come up to me today and tell me that they heard that it was Stevie's birthday today. What ticked me off was that I listen to an AM talk radio station in the morning and they named about 6 people that I have never heard of today. No mention of Stevie's birthday but these other people all were mentioned as having a birthday today. That ticks me off but then they would have only said mean things about her anyway.

Everyday is Stevie Day for me!

But I have a dumb idea anyway because I get sappy when it comes to her. At 9pmET (I apologize to the overseas people as I don't know your time zones) for those of you in your cars, honk your horns. For those already at home, walk out to your car and honk your horns And everybody yell:

Happy Birthday, Stevie! We Love You!

I? Am a dweeb.

On edit: Got rid of the time zones. They were all screwed up.

I ended up lighting some Nag ChampRA, and a vanilla L'Occitane candle (they smell great together!), poured a glass of Merlot and I watched Storytellers, which had Stevie's Behind the Music immediately following on the same tape. I had to watch that too. I bought myself a present after work - my bookshelf stereo in my bedroom died so I bought a Sony boom box to replace it. First CD I put in? Buckingham Nicks (the vinyl transfer to CD boot, natch).

Question: In Storytellers, at the end of Stand Back, I think it was, what's the last line? It sounds like she says, "love your life," or "love your light." Anyone know what I'm talking about?

I always thought she said "time of your life" - but I am uncertain

Also, vanilla L'Occitane candle - HELLO FABULOUS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I saw Star Wars again and sang Stevie all day.

I don't know, but I have the same tape, and have watched it numerous times. Good choice.

There's a caramel scent they make now too, it's divine! And the melon is yummy as well - once I burn them down, I keep the tins open all over the house, like air fresheners! At work, I have 2 on my desk that I don't light, but I keep them around for aromatherapy when I get stressed, I inhale 'em - it really works! I have a vanilla and another one that's a blend of ylang ylang and jasmine, or something, it's deelish!
