belated birthday post
So, my birthday was not exceedingly fabulous, but I did enjoy myself, I think. Mum and I went about the shops in Hillcrest, first stop was the hat shop, and nothing there really struck my fancy, but I got the card of a place that sells bowlers in various colors, and I tried on a 900 dollar optimo style Panama hat. It was glorious.
After that, we went around the fancy used clothes stores, and I stopped in the used bookstore to see if he'd gotten in any new Doctor Who books. He hadn't, and I didn't find any clothes I really wanted, so we went and had some mexican food (which was weird because I ordered a burrito and all of the ingredients but the meat were outside of the burrito and I kind of had to add them as I went).
After that, mum realised that since I hadn't found anything I wanted in Hillcrest, that meant she hadn't really bought me anything for my birthday, so we went down to the mall and she checked on her perscription and bought me a couple Doctor Who DVDs (Mark of the Rani and The Five Doctors Anniversary edition). This made me happy.
Then we came home, watched Mark of the Rani, and I took a nap.
Then, yesterday, I visited my grandma. She game me a metal water bottle and twenty bucks, and we all went out to eat. It was nice.
Next week, my Dad'll be down and I'll go about and do something with him for my birthday, I suppose. it occures to me that much of birthdays is just dealing with a bunch of people who want to make you happy, but don't quite know how. I think I'm okay with that.
And now I'm 20. Frankly, it feels odd.
