Gosh there&#8217;s too many to list.\u00c2\u00a0 You&#8217;ll see them all in <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/ching\"  target=\"out\"><font color=\"#000000\">the Flickr album<\/font><\/a> though.\u00c2\u00a0 I also put together a fun <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.alonsofamily.net\/misc-media\/h2004\/\"  target=\"out\"><font color=\"#000000\">photoshow<\/font><\/a>, if you&#8217;re so inclined and have a few minutes to spare.<\/p>\n<p>The party was fun.\u00c2\u00a0 We played some poker and battle of the sexes.\u00c2\u00a0 They even took time to sing me happy birthday.\u00c2\u00a0 As you know, I don&#8217;t really like the attention so that was kind of embarrassing, but I&#8217;m glad that it was my birthday because I didn&#8217;t have to sing happy birthday.\u00c2\u00a0 I hate singing happy birthday because I&#8217;m so tone deaf that I can&#8217;t even sing the stupid freakin&#8217; happy birthday song properly.\u00c2\u00a0 Thank God it was MY birthday so I was exempt from singing!\u00c2\u00a0 Anyway, that was really nice of them.<\/p>\n<p>As the night wore on and the drinks kept pouring, I didn&#8217;t even realize I was getting a little too drunk.\u00c2\u00a0 Brian&#8217;s version of the evening consisted of me being loud and obnoxious.\u00c2\u00a0 Of course, all the other drunk people didn&#8217;t notice.\u00c2\u00a0 At least, I hope they didn&#8217;t.\u00c2\u00a0 Things are way, way different from a sober person&#8217;s perspective I guess..<\/p>\n<p>I thought I was fine, but when Brian and I finally got home that&#8217;s when the shit hit the fan.\u00c2\u00a0 Brian said I passed out over the toilet, with my chin hanging on the edge.\u00c2\u00a0 He had to pick me up to take me to the bedroom.\u00c2\u00a0 He was actually surprised that I didn&#8217;t bruise because he said he dropped me!\u00c2\u00a0 I was so sick Brian said he stayed up until 5:30 AM or so just to make sure I would be okay.\u00c2\u00a0 The next day was the same.\u00c2\u00a0 Still queasy puky.\u00c2\u00a0 I was so close to canceling my birthday lunch with the family because at 12:30 PM I was still feeling nauseous.\u00c2\u00a0 Brian wouldn&#8217;t let me cancel lunch though so we went.<\/p>\n<p>The sucky part is that I love Abuelo&#8217;s and all I could eat were bland chips and a side of rice.\u00c2\u00a0 I eventually was able to eat some chips with my favorite chili con queso with beef after I started feeling a little better but I was so disappointed that I couldn&#8217;t eat anything else.\u00c2\u00a0 We&#8217;ll just have to go again next time.<\/p>\n<p>Anyway, we had planned on going shopping after lunch and playing some racquet ball from 5 to 7 PM but, because of the state I was in, we couldn&#8217;t do any of that.\u00c2\u00a0 It was no fun at all being hung over!\u00c2\u00a0 I think I may forsake drinking forever.\u00c2\u00a0 Brian sure doesn&#8217;t like it when I drink so I&#8217;m sure he&#8217;d support the decision.<\/p>\n<p>BTW, dinner at Outback with Sarah, Benny, Ashley and Brian was pretty good.\u00c2\u00a0 I&#8217;m just so glad that I can start eating food again and not have to worry about it wanting to come back out.\u00c2\u00a0 After dinner we went over to Ashley&#8217;s to checkout their new PS2.\u00c2\u00a0 Pretty cool!<\/p>\n<p>I guess this is it for now because I&#8217;m getting sleepy.\u00c2\u00a0 I&#8217;ll try to write a more interesting entry next time, instead of telling you how the weekend went.\u00c2\u00a0 Maybe I&#8217;ll write some fiction that could be non-fiction that will leave you wondering, did she or did she not?\u00c2\u00a0 Ha!\u00c2\u00a0 I think I may just do that next time.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u00c2\u00a0 Brian&#8217;s Fantasy Originally uploaded by Ching.
