And the prize for the most surprising birthday gift goes to...

Simon Ball! This morning I walked to the post office with the little slip that says I have a parcel waiting for me, and I came home to find that the Amazon box contained a copy of Amelie! (Sorry, I don't do accents.) Now, I admit, when I read the card with the note from Simon, I should have known what it was, but I didn't. Total surprise, both in content and in the fact that it was from him. Yay! I love you, Simon.
