wow.
i wanted to type so much the other day, but blogger wouldn't let me sign in.
tons has been going on. i had my birthday, it was really fun. at midnight on wednesday, adam jeff and lisa took me to the blarney. they bought me drinks and we played that game adam always talks about with the hook on the wall. saw some people, fun times. we came back here and were all rowdy. craziness ensued.
the actual day of my birth was a busy one, with 4 hours of class, and 2 hours of meetings. but then i went to the sole proprietor with my family. it was wonderful. the clam chowder was incredibly good, i would have been happy with just that, but the rest of the meal was fantastic as well. mom and i drank white zinfandel. yum
they gave me a ring at dinner, which was really unexpected (and that only adds to the fun) and i really like it.
we came back and had fruit squares and some more presents (including powerpuff girl monopoly - yeay!). after they headed out, adam and i went to the bar at 111 chophouse, which was real swank. it was great inside, very frank lloyd wright, and i had a cosmopolitan. it was also nice to sit and chat with adam when we're not at work. unfortunately, neither one of us has much time for that lately.
when i came home all the dana hall kids were here (fun times, i don't see them enough), as well as a big bucket of egg nog. kelley headed out about 5 minutes after i walked in the door, and never came back, which was a little odd, considering even sara stayed for quite a while, which was really cool. i think we even had a few laughs. in some ways, kel leaving really isn't odd at all. such a shame. more people came over, mostly student council kids, and then everyone who was at the basketball boys' suite next door. it was crowded, it was a full-blown party. it was nuts. after a while, they started to make their way home and just a couple of the french african boys stayed. they always stay. all they really want is other people's alcohol. at this point exhaustion set in. tim showed up, things quieted down, people were drunk, there was attempted twister. i started losing my voice and wanting only my bed. eventually everyone was gone and i went to sleep.
it was a very good birthday.
more to come but now i have to go read more about meta-media :P
