Birthday!

[frappybabe]

ok, well, today is not my birthday but the 6th was. i really had a great time. i organized a huge dinner with all of my philosophy friends and then we went drinking at the bars. i didn't have to pay for a thing all night. i was genuinely surprised, especially for dinner since we were celebrating another philosopher's birthday as well. then saturday i was able to sleep in and enjoy glorious sleep. i went to JJ's in denver that night and his mom made homemade stuffed shells. delicious! then Julie and Sam took me to breakfast on sunday and JJ took me to dinner and a movie that night. i don't think i've ever had a birthday like that. birthdays are a strange event. Julie has had a birthday party every year that her parents hosted until she came to college. then, of course, it was my responsibility to create this huge birthday thing and i wasn't even aware of this. it had created quite a few fights. i think she has finally realized that as adults, we usually create our own birthday happiness. if you want a dinner to happen with ten other friends, you need to call those ten other friends and tell them to come out. or at least be content with someone taking you out to breakfast.

but anyway, this weekend i get to celebrate my birthday with mi familia. it's an international feast, doesn't that sound fun? we are celebrating 4 different birthdays. not because they are so close together, one was almost two months ago, but because we can never get together as a huge family.

i'm so sleepy. i keep falling asleep in my chair.

well, hopefully i'll remember to blog on monday. i just keep forgetting about this place.

love!
