Birthday fun!
My mom, gram and I went to the Olive Garden on Thursday for my birthday. My mom had slipped the staff a note. She took pictures and I never even thought of the birthday song. Until after we ate and the staff brought out a delicious, warm chocolate cake and started doing the loud birthday song complete with clapping and stomping. I apparently turned red and couldn't even look up, lol!
I got a couple shirts, some money, a mini amp for my guitar and a pretty blue IKEA lamp for my room (with two lightbulbs that were almost more money than the lamp). My parents and I had strawberry shortcake (which my gram made at my request) and my mom and I played a game of Bookworm on the computer. It was a great day!
Earlier today/tonight, our dog Teddy had a rather large pea-sized tick on his head that my mom had to get off. Yuck. I'm still grossed out by the fact that I touched it before we saw what it was.
I went to bed around 8pm cos I've been feeling blah (hopefully allergies so my rats don't catch a cold if I have it) and just woke up to get cake. I found half a dozen ants in the pantry and had to round them up and set them free outside. Hope they don't freeze. One got squished by a bottle of meat sauce (that's meat products for you). Poor thing. My mom wasn't very happy about them being in there, but I told her not to kill them. I think ants are cool. It's not their fault if they have to eat. I also feel bad for that tick. It got put in a pill bottle with alcohol and I guess it's dead now. But can you imagine being something that everyone hates?
I'm going to IKEA at 9am for a sale. I'm sure I'll be able to get up at that hour, lol!
