happy birthday to me...
dear livejournal,
so here's what went down...
my birthday was sunday. so late saturday night my mom and i went shopping and stuff and made my funfetti (only the best) cake and lazagna for the next days celebration w/ my friends and family. after i went to bed that night my mom frantically, i suppose, cleaned our whole downstairs (which is normally a disaster). so i woke up sunday KNOWING that Oprah was comming over!! so i told my friends that day at churhc and i was super excited that she was comming over b/c why else would our downstairs be SPOTLESS
...now before you think i'm insane. i warned oprah about my birthday. yes, yes i did. i e-mailed her 2 MONTHS AGO, giving her PLENTY of time to fit me into her schedual, inviting her to my not-at-the-time planned bday party.
so i completely forgot about that whole e-mail thing until the day of my bday and i see our whole house is clean. so i was like shakin with anticipation at church... i could just see myself now, on her wildest dream show, her showing up at my house and chillin w/ my friends and i, eating lazagna.
yet on our way home from church i asked my mom if oprah was comming over (my mom knew nothing of my e-mail) and she sadly said no.. prolly also thinkin i'm delerious at the sound of the question. and i was like well you cleaned the whole house and everything!..i jsut thought maybe she was comming over.. and my mom was like "allison, if Oprah was comming to our house, I would have HIRED perfessionals to clean our house". true, very true. i'm sure anyone would.
so anyway my bday was kinda lame during the day. rachnkate came over and we went swimming and to the movies.
but oh no.. heres the good part.
we get back to my house around 8. and low and behold laying before me, a suprise bday party my friends had put together.
it was greaatttt
all my best pals from church and school... there were like a million people over it was great. and we had yummy food and yummy cake. (which thankfully turn out better than my funfetti cake b/c my brother totally demolished it "by accident" and i swear i almost cried. it was the sadest blowing-out-of-the-candles you would have ever seen).
oh, and to top it off, a big box was outside waiting for me and when i lifted it up, joshua poped out!
now my boyfriend joshua has been living in GA this entire summer inturning at a church (actually our separation and the situation is the BEST thing that could've ever happened to us.. we thank God) and i only saw him once. and he wasn't suppose to get back til labor day weekend. so very big suprise for me.
yay for birthdays.
sadly my friends left shortly after due to beginning of school the next day.
and so it started. the 9 months of continuous exhaustion and annoyance.
but whatever. it's life and i'll take it and deal with it and thank God.
amen, goodnight.
