Birthday!!!!!!

Yesterday was my quarter of a century birthday. It couldn't have been a more perfect day! I woke up in a great mood, made myself a GREAT breakfast (ate in in bed, tee-hee), and waited patiently for the phone call that I know was inevitable....the call from the parents!

So they called me (and not at the butt crack of dawn) to sing me happy birthday and relate to me my famous birthday story that has been repeated to me for the last 25 years. I told them that they needed to write those down so that we (all three of us kids) will have them forever, I don't know, I guess it's gooeybut it was nice, then they suggested that we go out to lunch and a movie, that was awesome too.

My day couldn't have gone more smoothly. I was able to have a great time with all the people I care about and still take time to enjoy the fact that is was my birthday. I wish I could have spent some time with some other people, but you know, I only had 24 hours to party!

I ended up going out to dinner at this AWESOME authentic russian resturant and re-lived some of my childhood. As soon as I walked into this place, I was instantly transported to my Aunt Pat's kitchen with all my Aunts and cousins making family russain food...it was bliss!

Unfortunatly my back decided to go out of whack about a half hour before that, so it was kind of an uncomfortable experience physically, but the food was amazing. I think I found a new favorite resturant!

Later that night my friends kidnapped me (and put aside their individual drama to hang out with me)to go dancing, but unfortunatly my back was wonky so I got to sit and watch everyone on the dance floor, it wasn't actually that bad, I did have a lot of fun and came home at a decent hour. My day was awesome.

So as my mom said..."I think it's funny that everyone is calling YOU and wishing you a happy birthday when I did all the work!". I just laughed and said, "yea, but I'm the one who survived the last 25 years of it!" So ends one of the greatest days of my life. Cheerio!
