Officially Seeking Personal Improvement
So things went well on my birthday for once. I've had a string of pretty bad birthdays, but this one was rockin. For those of you who aren't aware of my previous B-day mis-steps, I'll do a quick recap. To be honest I cant remember what happened at 20, but I'm sure it wasn't terribly exciting. I'm sure I was hanging with Denise, but that's about all I am sure of. 21 however, achieved maximum suckage. I worked that day, but took the next day off. I assumed I'd get off at a normal hour and join my family for dinner, where drinks would flow, and I could sleep in the next day. However this didn't happen. I ended up working until like 9:30, and my family got tired of waiting around for me so they went ahead and ate without me. So on my 21st birthday, I had Burger King and about 2 Smirnoff Ices. It was uber depressing. However my spirits were raised days later when I finally had a public drink(several in fact) at the Hala Kahiki. It's a fabulously kitschy tiki bar in the middle of nowhere, and everyone should experience it once.
22 was going well until I got retardedly drunk and made an ass of myself in front of all my friends and my beautiful lady Lauren. Many of you were at that party and If I never apologized, I'm sorry. I've learned my lesson with drinking for the most part. No one is perfect though.
On to 23. So I really wanted to keep things low-key, So I planned to take the day easy then just enjoy dinner with Lauren and possibly some friends. Well the day before Lauren got off work early and came over bearing the greatest birthday gift ever: a Deep Fryer! We Promptly used is to fry up all manner of awsomeness. I will have a standing offer to deep fry anything you ask from now on. You bring the food, I deep fry it. The next day It was easy going relaxation. Tim and Pat came over and joined Lauren and I for dinner at Moody's. After that we watched my birthday gift from Tim, which was the hilariously awesome 80's horror movie Chopping Mall. It's about security robots in a mall that go crazy and try to kill everyone. Things of not in Chopping Mall: 1.Fantastic exploding head 2.Apparently some malls have sporting good stores with fully automatic assault weapons 3.It keeps up the rule that if you have sex you will die, but it even extends to married sex in this movie.
So yes, a solid birthday indeed. Now next weekend is another story altogether. I have to attend my cousin's wedding in Rockford. I am sure it will be quite an interesting affair. News on that as it becomes available. Preview note: the colors are Pink and Yellow. Oh yeah.
