hkellickIt's time to celebrate your birthday.
It happens every year.
We'll eat a lot of broccoli
and drink alot of beer.

OK, so my birthday was super-duper-kick-freakin'-ass.
The festivities began on Friday with an attempted and failed dinner at the Olive Garden. Instead, we had dinner at one of my other favorite places, Homestyle Buffet. So we go home, and who calls but Marky to wish me a happy birthday (and he's never called me before, so it WAS cool.) So, that was cool. Then Kar and ara finally get here at 8:30 (when i was sure they wouldn't be here till 9:30 or later.) and we go out to Dennys so that Kar n ara can eat (we being, Kar, ara, my brother and I). We have a lovely convo and go home. josh goes to sleep and Kar, ara and I go downstairs and talk till 12:00
Saturday.. Darien Lake... It was a phenomenal day. We rode all sorts of rides, played games, bought stuff, got sunburned. It was great! We road the Viper and I didn't quite fit into the seat right and so the ride was uncomfortable and, according to the picture, I looked it. We went into the water park and road the lazy river and water slides once each. We went onto the Superman Ride of Steel which STILL simultaneously thrills and scares me (and this time I got the picture. it was great!) And finally, Laserblast, the Laserlight show.. and a good time was had by all.
Meanwhile, while I WASN'T home... my brother Marc called to wish me a happy birthday as did my friend Dave (who was invited to Darien Lake, so I can't guess why he called.) and a bunch of friends on ChaoticMUX sent @mails and left +polls telling me happy birthday (which is completely different from last year when NO ONE remembered until I told them! I'm so glad Chaotic's warmed back up again.. it's so much nicer this way.)
Sunday, we hugged Karabella goodbye as they went back to Connecticut and Boston. Then Mom, Josh and I went to the beach which would have been better if they didn't have the damned music/Karaoke. By the 6th song where a bunch of squeeky 12 years olds singing Backstreet Boys and N Sync I left for the day and slept in my grandma's cottage. Then everyone came home, we had dinner, and we left.
Now it's Monday.. back to the grind. Still a bit tired, despite my finally getting a chance to catch up on sleep. Not much going on today, so I guess I'll end this post here. :)
