Alrighty, it's been awhile. But I'll go ahead and update now because my weekend was fun.
On Saturday night Mikey and I went out to Jungle Island. What? Yeah, it's some place out on Madeira beach. We got there around 11 for the show they were having. Mikey's brother, Kevin, and his rap group, Downsquad, were performing on stage for the cd release party they were having. $2 kamikazes, purple hooters, and drafts. Damn fun time really, great drinks. Kevin and his boys threw it down for about five songs or so, then mingled with the crowd. I bought their new cd, but didn't have enough for a t-shirt. Hell, maybe I'll hit Kevin up for a shirt later. Afterward Mikey and I went by Wafflehouse, where they neglected to even bring me my order. Mikey got his, and I waited til the end to say anything. Amazingly, the check was picked up by the house...and then I went to Steak n Shake where I got a chicken finger dinner. So it's my birthday at this point, Sunday. I had plans to go to Edo with my parents, and my aunt and uncle.
I woke up around noon, got cleaned up, and putzed around the house for a few hours. We went out to Edo around 6, met up with my aunt and uncle, and got ourselves a big tea pot of sake. Sake is great, lots of fun can be had with sake. After one tea pot was down, we got another. The chef cooked an excellent meal, and I got a cake and photograph of myself to commemorate the occasion. Then we came back to my house. I called Michelle to see how her bowling tourament went. It went alright, but her team only got like fourth. Ah well, can't win 'em all. She wished me a happy birthday and said her mother would be coming by with my birthday present, since her mother was in Orlando earlier for the tourament.
So like a half hour later her mother shows up with a couple balloons and a gift bag. How thoughtful of Michelle ;) Then Jean goes out to the car to get something else she forgot. I went to the kitchen to get something, and when I get out of the kitchen here's Michelle out in the dining room waiting for me. Huge surprise there, given that I wasn't expecting her at all on account of her having a tournament that weekend. I really haven't been that pleasantly surprised ever, I don't think.
So it was a good weekend. And Laurie, we'll have to figure out a day for us to go out and grab a drink or whatever. I should be free sometime this week so we'll coordinate a time. I know, you're thinking "Gee Tobes, you tell me when you're available..." Alrighty.
