Hello during a random dessert
Apr. 10th, 2011 12:49 amOH my goodness. How can I possibly be 24? When I was in high school, do you know what I was thinking about myself at 24? Maybe not married, not yet, but maybe in a serious relationship. Definitely done with college and powering full steam ahead in my set career, moved out of Florida and etc etc. Lol I guess one out of four ain't bad. And I'm not disappointed with how my life post-high school has gone, not at all; I guess what I mean is, back then, 24 seemed so much more distant and grown up than what I actually am. HOW CAN I POSSIBLY BE CONSIDERED AN ADULT. I still live with my parents! I have no idea what a health insurance deductible is! MY BED IS NEVER MADE.
Ah, well. Panic about getting older aside, it's been a pretty good weekend! Trying to go out with friends last night was a bit of a clusterfuck, but we made good of the bad; we were late for a neat little planetarium show I wanted to see and therefore couldn't go inside, BUT a nice gentleman took us on the roof anyway and showed us through 3 massive telescopes the moon, Saturn, Sirius, and the nebula on Orion's belt, all of which was SUPER AWESOMESAUCE in case you were wondering. Then we headed over to a restaurant that I was really excited for, a Thai-Mex fusion, but they stopped serving 10 minutes before we got there, SIIIGH. Fortunately we knew another good restaurant in the area, so it worked out! Then there was drinking. LOTS OF DRINKING. So at least it ended well. :D
Today my parents and I went to Orlando to the Great American Pie Festival, where $10 gets you into the all you can eat pie buffet. Piiieee. If you can think it up, I probably had it. Omg. So good. Unfortunately it was all outside and almost unbearably hot (I know, it's April, I KNOW, MY RAGE, IT SIMMERS) so we didn't stay too long. Later we went to dinner at a Spanish tapas restaurant which was holy crap amaaaazing. Quail is awesome, btw. When we came home we had a Skype session with my sister, which was really nice because I miss her! I opened the present she sent me while we Skyping, which was pretty cool. A framed picture of us, vanilla rooibos tea from the Republic of Tea, and an assortment of ethnic food goodies from a store they have up in Chicago called World Market. DO YOU ENJOY HOW MY BIRTHDAY HAS CENTERED AROUND FOOD. I sure do. And thennn my parents gave me Tron on blu-ray (AHHHasjkdfla;jdka I am so excited to watch it you have no idea), $40 gift card to the ~mall, a full year's subscription to Flickr, and a pair of shoes of my choosing. I will keep you up to date and informed about said shoes.
Tomorrow I get to have the peppermint chocolate cake that my dad is making me. It has peppermint schnapps in it. And ganache. Omg. Sugar coma. This weekend. I cannot.
( OH YEAH THEN I GOT THESE STUPID FACES )
Also HAPPIEST OF BIRTHDAYS to my fellow birthday buddies who are continuously awesome,![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
