Geburstag!
Today has been great:
1. Danis woke me up with a birthday call!
2. The Germans have all been ridiculously nice on my birthday considering that I've only known them for two weeks. Katja and Nina surprised me with a cake at lab.
3. The people in the lab all stopped by and wished me happy birthday, and they bought me some cakes.
4. I don't think that I've done a single productive chemistry thing today. However, I did make this sweet video to delight and entertain that is about me as a scientist.
5. People have called me from another continent.
6. My mom is going to sign a document for me saying that she is "my agent while I am abroad". I don't know if this will work, but I really like the sound of it.

You look birthday happy! What's in the heart tin? Looks like they had cake and candles and everything; gosh, I guess they know how to celebrate birthdays in Germany just like in the USA---invite them to celebrate theirs with us here next time. I'll bake the cake!

Happy B-day Drew! Have fun and learn a lot in Germany! The video is awsome... I understand why you need an agent now!

Cake!!! I want some cake! For mom, and alex and dad and me!!! I'll get a knife!!! Imagine if you acted just like that on your birthday this year. You should have, but you're too much of a civilized scientist to be that juvenile. Did you have some German chocolate cake?? Which, I hear, is a misconception because the chocolate isn't German, but named after a man with the last name German. But i've only heard that once and don't really know what is true.

my dearest drew,
so sorry we could not spend your birthday together. is your cactus still alive or should i have #3 waiting for your return?
today, d and i went spelunking in the cave of devil's den. needless to say we were excited, but no one seemed to share this enthusiasm. but i knew deep down in side if drew cogbill was here he'd proudly say "i'll hike up a mountain and i'll climb through a cave!"
take care,
the leslise
p.s. drew...I really like your faux-hawk right now, it's looking really good.
