Another Year
Hooray, another birthday has come and gone and I've managed to stave off death for another year. All in all this year's celebratory activities were pretty good.
The actual celebration started on Wednesday night. Why Wednesday night? 'Cause Phil's birthday was on Wednesday and mine was today. So we started then, and basically just carried it on through for a couple days. The first night was a low key dinner at the Plaid in Tempe followed up by going to a friend's apartment for some hookah action and watching Kung Fu Hustle (great movie if you haven't seen it). Then, on Saturday evening we had dinner with a couple friends at Bucca di Beppo down in Mesa and reconvened later that evening back at Phil's house for a small get-together. I have to admit that it ended up being a pretty great celebration. My particular favorite was the group of people sitting around playing a card game that emulates little catholic school girls beating the shit out of one another.
I'd also like to say that Phil's present was pretty awesome. Not only did I get a really sweet Mahjong set, but I got an awesome new outfit for yoga.
Got to spend a few minutes tonight (on my actual birthday) with Phil and that was good too. I'm pretty exhausted at this point and pretty much just want some sleep.
