Aug. 20th, 2009 12:23 pmMy birthday was on Saturday. I got to sleep in at Dan's mom's house in a big, comfy bed. I got up and dressed, then Dan's mom (Sandy) showed me how to use her nifty coffee/tea/cocoa maker and *poof* hot fresh tea in under a minute. AWESOME. Dan and I had leftover Chinese food for breakfast and hung out while Sandy got her nails done. He watched some old Spider-man cartoons while I finished my book ("My Lobotomy," a memoir about a kid who was given a lobotomy when he was 12 years old essentially because his stepmother didn't like him). We all headed over to his dad's (Juan's) house around four to find everyone already there. We chatted with his mom (Sandy) and sister (Sandra) then hung out with Matt (Dan's brother-in-law) and talked about computers and games for a bit and met Javier's new boyfriend (those two are SO CUTE, by the way... I <3 gay couples). Dan ended up taking my phone away because I was obsessively checking it, waiting for a vet clinic to call me back about a job. We had dinner around 5pm: I stuffed myself with BBQ baby back ribs, Boston baked beans, grilled corn on the cob, and twice-baked potatoes. YUM. I opened presents after that, and of course my cousin (YAY KIRIAN I LUFF YOU) called in the middle of that to wish me happy birthday, so I had to take a brief break from presents. I got chocolate covered strawberries (Dan), new jammies (Sandra and Matt), and ice cream maker (Tatiana!), a huge George Forman Grill (Juan), and shell with a matching necklace and earring set inside (Nicole), and an awesome coffee/tea/cocoa maker (Sandy) just like the one I'd used that morning. (Dan was poor because he hadn't gotten his paycheck yet... he got it on Wednesday so more birthday presents for me later!) We had strawberry cheesecake for desert (YUMM)... and my family called at 6:52 (the time I was born 22 years ago) to sing to me and wish me a happy birthday (Awww I love you guys, too). We ate, then everyone headed home. Tatiana stopped by the video store to get a movie, and we watched 17 Again at Sandy's house.... and my sister and nieces called to sing to me. Seems like everytime I was actually doing something, someone called! Not that I'm complaining, I feel so loved. We went to bed after the movie, and I got to cuddle Dan all night long in the big, comfy bed. Good birthday.
Oh, and since I haven't found a job in three or so weeks of looking, I applied for unemployment.
YES I APPLIED FOR UNEMPLOYMENT ON MY BIRTHDAY. How lame is that? =(
