It's December of 1992. I'm turning 39. Of course I'll be on stage tonight so I guess it will be a HUGE party with all the fans. My fiance has given me a gold necklace which I need to see if I can wear it on stage. Gene and Paul okay it which makes me happy. 

Eric even behaves all day which actually scares me a bit. He leaves me a present in my dressing room along with Gene and Paul's. 

That night it's cold as a storm is blowing in.  I hope it doesn't snow before everyone gets home safe. Paul's offered to rent an extra room so I can have my fiance stay over. We have a blast on stage, as usual. It's really nice to hear everyone singing Happy Birthday to me before we head backstage. 

After showering and changing, we head to the restaurant for my birthday. Gene's family is there as well as my older brother and some of Eric's family. All in all, it's very nice. I open presents and we all have a great time. 

The snow holds off until night time so we're all asleep and not having to ride in the tour bus over icy roads. The only bittersweet moment is that Eric Number 1 wasn't here to celebrate with me.
