HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME, HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME!
hey, if no one else is going to sing it to me, i might as well.
actually, i take that back. last night, or should i say early this morning, ben, dpike, dvance and matt garrett sang it to me. boy was it a beautiful arrangement! anyway...that is how my birthday started. after some of them and some others watched two godfather movies, i joined them and we played an AWESOME game. it is ben's game that he brought to us from his experiences at brown....we played from before 12 until 3. and that was ONE game. david vance and i left, but the other three played another game i think. anyway, it is called "the settlers of Catan" i think. i am looking forward to playing it late tonight as well.
anyway, that was fun and then i drove to monroe co at 3 a.m. and was in bed around 4. i slept til 12, which was only 8 hours, but it was well needed nonethless. when i got up, i went to mammy's to see my sydney drew. i hadn't seen her since christmas i don't think. i'd missed the little rascal....anyway, i played with her until nearly three and then i showered, got ready and came to glasgow. i'm right now sitting in glasgow waiting for dpike to call me b/c he is taking me out to eat for my birthday. i'm very hungry, therefore i'm excited!! = ]
hehe.
anyway, let me back track a little bit. last night i went to BG for pre-birthday activities with my mom. originally she had invited me down there to take me out for my birthday, but when i called her to inform her that i was coming, she was like, "i'm cooking some spaghetti, is that okay." i was really pissed b/c i was looking forward to actually going out to eat! i said, "i don't really feel like it, but it will be okay." she then was like, "i can fix this for bob, then you and i can go eat." i convinced her that i was fine with the non-jenny picked meal, even though i was upset about it! it was MY birthday meal for goodness sake...anyway, i got over it eventually....and she made me a birthday cake, so it was all good.
i got to meet "bob's" dogs and hear all these "wonderful" stories about them...blah blah!
but, i got a nice necklace from my mom and then we went to the mall. it was 8:00 so i only had an hour to shop. i hadn't spent any of my christmas money on myself yet, so i was excited. i coudln't do too much damage, but i came home with an awesome pair of pants (i'm wearing them now) that are sort of blue/black and they have sparkles! hehe. (you guys at georgetown might laugh!) and i got a pretty, bright, funky blue sweater and, brace yourselves, some BLUE pants to match! woohoo! i only spent 50 dollars but it is probably a good thing i only had an hour.
so overall, the time with my mom was pretty fun.
but, best of all, today when i went back to my dad's after being at mammy's, i found the prettiest arrangement of flowers on the table that my mom had sent. it was wonderful. a great surprise that even made me cry!
and later i found a nice pretty check from my dad on the table! woohoo.
so, even though mammy once again didn't fix me a birthday cake and she nor my dad never said "happy birthday" it has been a great day! i just hope tonight is fun and i don't get stuck going to the glasgow/barren co. bball game. i really don't want to go but i'm not going to sit around my house by myself if everyone else is going.
i'll update you later on everything.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME, HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME....
