A great birthday celebration!
So, my birthday isn’t until Tuesday, but on the 8th (Sunday), we went to Casa Larga for wine tasting and other various wine related things– including a tour with a killer bird and a Dalek attack (Erica’s new text message noise is a Dalek saying “Exterminate!” and it went off in the middle of the tour in a kinda dark basement room of the vineyard… and Susan D, Erica, and I were laughing hysterically… apparently I was trying so hard to hold the laughter in that I turned about 6 shades of red and also purple. LoL. It was a great time.
Then we went to dinner at the India House (Joel, My Dad, Iain, Susan D, Sisan, Erica, Brian Wong, Brittany, Dave, Christina and I) and thorougly enjoyed good food and the best server in the world and much hilarity ensued there as well. Brian Wong, Christina and Erica had to leave after dinner for work related purposes, which was lame, but understandable and I love them dearly and am so glad they came to dinner, etc.
Afterwards, some of us (Joel, Sisan, Iain and Susan D, Brittany and Dave) went back to my house for a rousing game of Apples to Apples and presents and cookie cake!! Iain and Susan got me an expansion for Arkham Horror which I cannot WAIT to play, Christina got me socks and a gift card for Old Navy, and Sisan got me an epic collection of things for the summer– a great bag with a huge orange flower on it and an orange inside, adorable sunglasses, a playable Candyland towel, and trashy vampire romance novel!! It really put me in a summer-y mood, which I totally needed with all the snow and whatnot. It was of course amazingly fun and then Joel needed to go home because he has a cold, poor fiance-face and that sort of triggered everyone else to go home (lame), except for Sisan who was trapped there at my mercy! BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
Sisan and I then proceeded to talk until about 2:30 in the morning, stopping every hour or so to say that I should probably take her home soon. Oops. It was so much fun and was definitely much needed girl-talk time. I’m so glad that everyone could come out and celebrate my birthday, especially Sisan because it got her out of her house and she suffered through foot pain/pain killer times being off/maybe making her mom mad (she stayed up until I brought Sisan home) to spend time with me on my birthday and it was freaking awesome.
It was an epic birthday and I am grateful for the awesome people in my life that I got to share it with. 
Birthday Parties… oh how they’ve changed.
So, I had my birthday party tonight, I haven’t slept yet, it’s still Friday, although it’s dated Saturday because it’s 4:30 am so then I don’t have to post later today. Bwahahaha.
As I was saying, I had my birthday party tonight, my 23rd one. Although I’m not 23 until tomorrow officially. And it was laid back and cool. The usual suspects were there: Joel, Erica, Ben, Brian, Other Joel, and Eric. There were others invited but for various reasons they could not attend, and that’s okay, although sad. We sat around talking and listening to music and eating pizza for 3 hours and then went into the basement to partake in some Singstar (VH, if you have a PS2, get Singstar, I feel you will enjoy it as much as I do) and Super Mario Galaxy. And that was it. No cake, no presents (well, Joel bought me presents {Munchin Impossible, and Once Upon a Time [two card games I've been eye-ing]} and cards which were rather hilarious, I may have to take pictures), no planned out activities, just hanging out talking, drinking, and playing video games, and I don’t think I could’ve been happier… well, if other people had been able to come too, it may have made it better.
I partook in my tradition of Jager Bombs (I think I may be the only person in the world that enjoys the flavour) and Red Headed Sluts (Mmm, tasty, again with Jager… hmmm, a theme?) and I bought a bottle of Goldschlager. This was purchased for the sole reason that I don’t feel like driving to Geneseo tomorrow to get my Kelly’s birthday shot, so I will be recreating it wherever I am tomorrow night as it becomes midnight. Wooo firey six ounce shots of Goldschlager! Mmm, alcohol… I think I need to re-do my undergrad years with more random drinking. Yes, that’s a healthy mindset…
So here I am, lying in bed next to the love of my life while he dreams a little dream and sleeps like a baby. Once I finish blogging, I will be snuggling up to him and being oh so happy. Well, I’m pretty happy right now, except that I don’t feel like I’m ready to go to sleep. I just stopped playing Super Mario Galaxy so he wouldn’t feel bad about coming to bed. What was I talking about?
Oh, right! Birthdays. Read the rest of this entry »
