Birthday Winnings!

My Birthday was Monday the 31st and celebrating started on Saturday. Since my birthday fell on a Monday we did a little bar celebration on Saturday. The evening started off by going to BW's in Clifton to watch the XU game. It was a disappointment's because they lost and were never really in the game. Our waiter was a huge hit though. ED and I got there early to make sure we had seats, which wasn't a problem, and that is when we had our first encounter with Chad. I thought he was high and told everyone my theory when they arrived, but we then came to the conclusion he just seemed high. By the end of the night he had no idea what we ordered or who ordered what. My bill had two less beers than what I had on it. When three of us paid with credit he came back, after 20 minutes, with all of our cards on different orders. We all went with it though, no need to confuse him any more. He was nice enough to tell us to come back and ask for him and he would comp us some appetizers because of all the trouble. Not so sure we will be headed back and asking for Chad.

After BW's and some ice cream it was on to Oakley Pub and Grill. Apparently this is now the official bar of Shando's birthday; this is where we went last year too. We had some heated discussions about brunch and how much Teed hates it and thinks it is just a trendy term. I have never talked so long about brunch in my life. We also talked about a baseball Budweiser sign where a player was holding a Michelob and this crazy girl dancing as she was putting songs on the juke box. She came with a date, but I don't think she sat with him the whole time they were there. She kept fooling around with the juke box and dancing while the guy just looked on. Teed also bought me a shot for my birthday, maybe Joel should take notes.

Sunday I had to go to work for a shoot in the afternoon. It wasn't too bad, but I was hoping to be finished a little sooner than I was. After work I came home and took a short little nap since I was tired and Ando wasn't home. I just lounged around the rest of the night waiting for my 9pm soccer game. We tied, again, we have to be the tieingest team ever, I don't think tieingest is a word.

Monday was my actual birthday. I only worked a half day trying to finish up a few loose ends from Friday. I then went out to lunch with Ando to Lemon Grass. I have been craving Singapore Noodles for a couple weeks now. They were everything I was hoping they would be. After my lunch with Ando, don't worry he paid, I went shopping. It turned out I wasn't really in the mood to shop. I know I rarely ever am, but I really wasn't yesterday. I tried to spend money, but just couldn't find anything I liked. All these baggy shirts need to go out of style. I look pregnant, sorry Mo, in all of them. It is going to be a long Spring for Shando clothing wise.

The night time brought on some gambling, well if you count bingo as gambling. My dad was calling for one last time and when you go on your birthday you get a free dauber, who could pass up such a wonderful gift! I won too, $75 on a coverall, the card in the lower corner half folded over. My mom even made a cake for me to share with everyone at intermission, cinnamon swirl, I am a sucker for all things cinnamon. It was the best birthday ever!

My birthday came and went; no marriage proposal from Ando.
