Birthday Loot
Posted on November 1, 2003 by Ching under Life.
Never fart in an elevator — even if you’re all alone. Trust me on this one. You will be stuck w/ the stench until you arrive at your floor.
Here’s my birthday loot from Brian:
black Fossil cuff watch (to replace my three-year old DKNY one that I have worn out)
Dido’s first and second releases and — don’t laugh — American Idol seasons 1 and 2 (I guess Brian felt bad that I was having difficulty finding them on Kazaa; things just aren’t the same as what they used to after all of the fines and arrests and stuff)
a large bouquet of stargazer lilies (my fave) but they died right away because we forgot to replenish the water
an enormous birthday cookie, which was a surprise Brian brought to me at work on Thursday night when he came to pick me up
and the most awesome gift of all — he’s getting a tattoo with my name on it on Wednesday
As far as, celebrations go — it’s hard when you have to go to school and work on your birthday. I had to take an accounting exam at eight o’clock in the morning on Thursday, so how’s that for celebrating? Then I wanted to go to KFC for lunch before work but Brian wanted to go somewhere nicer because it’s my birthday so we ended up at Applebee’s. Frankly, I think we would’ve gotten better service at KFC! I’m really beginning to despise that place. If it’s not for their frozen Bailey’s capuccino, which I am addicted to, I wouldn’t even step into that loathsome place.
Misty and Michael decorated my cube so that was really nice. I have pictures that Misty took with her camera phone. I didn’t bring my camera that day. Ashley brought cake, so we got to munch on that. She also brought barbecue pork lo mein from Malaysia Cafe but I didn’t get to eat it until the next day because I had to eat my Applebee’s leftovers. They also gave me a $70 giftcard to Abercrombie, one of my favorite ways to go broke, and that came in really handy.
Tonight is when the real celebrating begins, though. Brian and I are having dinner at Red Rock, one of my favorite restaurants in town. I love their yummy crab cakes! Their rotisserie chicken isn’t bad either. It’s one of the best I’ve ever had. Cluck and oink all the way, yeah!
Then tomorrow we are celebrating with Brian’s family and my family (dad will be absent, but he’ll be sorely missed) at Rib Crib in Derby. I have several pictures to share. We took some great Halloween pictures which you won’t want to miss. I’ll post them tomorrow, so come back okay?
