Birthdayed!! (^)

So, today is my birthday. 27 was supposed to be my rockstar year, but, well, that didn't really pan out. It was a pretty crappy year overall, so here's to being 28! 28 is special in that it is the 10th anniversary of my 18th birthday. Here's to 10 years of legal beer! Jeers to being closer to 30!

I had a pretty laid-back birthday. Bob Wright was in town for a few days and I had lots of dinners-out and drinking. I'm celebrating officially on Friday, so today was pretty chill. The office bought me a cake that was unrealistically chocolatey. I now have diabetes. Presents-wise, the grandparents and my dad got me cash, Robbie got me comic anthologies (Far Side and Calvin and Hobbes!), and Barb got be Howl's Moving Castle and Totoro - AND a 30Gb iPod!!! (more on the iPod later).

Tomorrow I'm laser tagging. Check out the site for awesome techno beats action. Then on to an only semi-chachi dance bar for traditional alcohol-fueled funness. Now, however, Barb and I are going to watch Howl, which should be awesome.
