Birthday Weekend

Saturday was B's birthday and we both took Friday off to rest and relax a bit before the big party on Friday night. His friend came in from out of town on Friday around noon and we all went to lunch and grabbed some margaritas.

We had some of B's closest friends over at our place for some drinks and food and later we met the rest of the group at a restaurant for drinks. When we got there the place was a mad house. The restaurant was bursting at the seams and there was people waiting for over 2 hours to be seated. When we got there we found out that the restaurant had given up our reservations and now we had to wait like everyone else. I was PISSED. We were early, they had called to confirm our reservations because we had 52 people in our party, and I had stopped by earlier to drop off a cake so they knew we were coming. After speaking to the managers several times I found them all to be complete idiots who lacked communications skills so we had to go to plan B. Since we were just having drinks we took over the bar area (which was already over crowded) and decided that would be our new plan, stand around and drink. I think (hope) everyone had a good time, I know I did. We left there and walked over to a gay bar a few blocks over where we had more drinks and met up with more friends. Over all the whole night was a success and B had a great time.

Saturday we slept in a little and got up and cooked breakfast before his friend left back home. Later that night I took B out to dinner and then we went to the movies to see Mama Mia. The movie was okay and Pierce Brosnan was horrible in the movie. He can't sing, I am not sure why he was playing the part.

Sunday we slept in until noon and headed to a pool party around 1:30. It was way to hot to be out in the sun so we were just there for about 1.5 hours and then headed home.

I also picked up several books on Sunday and I started reading The Zahir by Paulo Coelho and it's a realy good book.

That's all for now.

Birthday!

I had a birthday this month. I turned the big 3-0. I didn't really want to celebrate and I actually don't feel any worse than I did at the young age of 29.
 
It was one of the best birthdays I have had in years though. B got me tickets to go see Ricky Martin in concert and it was amazing. Of course I took plenty of pictures...and a video. Of Ricky. Practically naked. I watch it every night before I go to sleep in the hopes that I will have dreams of Ricky Martin.
 
B also arranged a surprise birthday dinner with a few of my friends. I was completely shocked. We went to one of our favorite new restaurants and when I walked in 5 of my friends were sitting there. The food was delicious and the the company was even more so.
 
After dinner B, my friend Juan and I went to a hookah bar were we continued drinking and smoked hookah.
 
It was a nice quiet birthday, just the way I wanted it to be.
 
 
Oh, one thing about being 30. I have noticed that I cringe when I am doing cardio at the gym and I have to enter myage. I just don't feel 30.

Birthday Post 2

Okay. He didn't forget. We went to a play last night and before the play started he said he wanted to tell me what he got me for my birthday because he was concerned I wouldn't' like it.
 
After two guesses I figured out what it was:
 
My guesses
1. Iphone - No
2. Trip - No
3. A dog - YES! YES! YES!
 
He was going to get me a chocolate lab but he had to get it by today because it was the last one. After the play, we talked about it and decided to wait until after we get a house.
 
He said he had other things lined up already...so now it's just a matter of getting my Nancy Drew instincts on.

Birthday!

My birthday is coming up on October 7. I don't think my boyfriend remembers and I don't want to say anything about it.
 
If he does remember, i don't think he is planning anything. Which he better after what I did for his birthday! He is really busy with work this coming week but if nothing is planned by the next two weeks I will just have to take matters into my own hands and plan something myself. Maybe a small party? Maybe a small dinner? Maybe a little vacation?
 
I like the last option but we will see.
 
What do you like to do for your birthday?
 
Has anyone ever forgotten your birthday?
 
My family once forgot my sisters birthday. This happened about 3 years ago. She is our oldest sister and she has always remembered our birthdays, even when we didn't live in the same state she would always send us a birthday card and call us. We felt so bad about forgetting and she felt even worse that we all forgot. We made up for it the following week and had a little party for her. The following year we all pitched in and threw her a big party. She deserved it!

Birthday

Today is B's birthday. He is now a year younger than I am. I

It has been a fun week. I decided to celebrate his birthday week by giving him a small birthday gift every day of the week until today. I don't know what I was thinking...I am horrible at picking out gifts for people. Horrible! I have mentioned I normally just give gift cards. But I think I pulled it off. He has liked all of the things I got him. The first 4 were just small gifts and today he got his big gift.

Last night we went to dinner with his friends. We took him to a local restaurant that was packed. Luckily we know the owner so we were able to make reservations and get seated without a wait. I picked up a velvet cake from a local bakery and it was delicious.

I am not a fan of one of his friends, and unfortunately he was invited. He loves attention and does everything he can to have the spot light. Other than that it was a great evening.

Tomorrow, he and I, are going out to dinner. He has been wanting to do a murder mystery so I found one for us to go to. It should be fun, hopefully neither of us will get killed.
