my birthday was fun. i did not get trashed as many do on their 21st, but it was fun nonetheless. i went to chevys for dinner. timmy, my brother russell and sister-in-law katie, tom and his girlfriend, and andrea were there. i had a frozen margarita and fajitas. our waiter sucked - he committed a few sins that no waiter should ever commit. they sang and i got free ice cream and a sombrero. andrea even dressed up for me on my birthday. from there we headed to the casino. ah, the white trash of st. charles unite. really though, it was fun. i played some penny and nickel slots. then we played video blackjack because i was too afraid to play the real thing. i actually only gambled with $22 of the money i was given. i was up double my money at one point, but of course i got greedy and lost it. it's ok though, because it was not even my money, it was given to me to play with for my birthday. eric and phil came up there too. phil bought everyone a shot, a washington apple, and it was alright. drinks are super cheap at the boat. i had a midori sour (ok) and an amaretto sour (good). then we went to this place, maryland yards, which is apparently the hot spot for lindenwood students. it was not so hot tuesday. it sucked, we left and went to applebees because we were hungry by that point. i had an appletini there and it was super strong. i don't really like alcohol unless you can't taste the alcohol so it wasn't that good. then, i went home.

as if that weren't enough, i just went to pick up my life story paper for personality theory, and i got a 50/50 on it. he told me i'm a good writer and he'll be glad to see me in the class counseling and psychotherapy next semester.
i decided to get my credit score every year, and this was time for it again man, it's scary. i'm 21 and i'm already in debt because of student loans and regular spending. i guess this summer is seriously going to be just netflix movie rentals and reading all those books i have piled up. no more shopping. i am going to go to boston with timmy to see
russell and hopefully get to see
jess.
today is the first day i've had to work since last sunday. i really don't want to go. at least it is payday.
