I love birthdays.
For me, birthdays mean a new year. A renewed sense of self. A clean slate. A new beginning. And if you know me, you know I love new beginnings. Usually I make every Monday the new week to diet, quit smoking, etc.
This birthday was on a Sunday. How odd the next day was Monday:)
I'll start from the beginning.
Saturday night I had to work until around 9:30. I decided to eat dinner because I was starving. Then I headed home to change and fold Amanda's laundry before going to her house to crash. We had to get up early to fit in all my bday celebrations.
Around 10:30 I landed at Amanda's apartment. I went inside to find the lights off, candles burning. I heard a guitar in the background, Anna Nalick's voice coming through the stereo and some other people's voices singing "Happy Birthday" My own special surprise party! The house was all decorated in things that I like. Daisy's, Green, Candles, Incense. My friend Rob had bought me my favorite wine and was cooking me my favorite dinner! So we all had a wonderful dinner made by Rob and got a little tipsy on the few bottles of wine:) I opened presents. We did another extracurricular activity and then layed down to eat my whoopie pie bday cake and drumstick ice cream! All in all, an awesome time!
After all of us making a big slumber party in the living room and many will and grace shows later, we all crashed. In the morning, breakfast was cooked and the birthday song was sung once again! Have a mentioned how much I love my friends?
Sunday afternoon Amanda and I left for Portland for the biggest journey her new Mitsubishi Evolution has seen yet. We stopped in Winslow to have a bbq with my mother and father. More presents and more food. :)
We left for Portland around 5:30. Once we got there we went to the mall so I could buy Matt a present. Then we headed for the hotel so we could get drunk and slutty:) haha. Naw, I had some wine, Amanda spent 10 hours doing her hair and makeup. Plus she did mine. No I don't have any pictures. But I kinda liked it so look for it in the future.
J.T's house was next on our stop. Big party was going on. Keg, cake, chips, poker, beer pong. The works. Matt was wicked drunk! It was so much fun. It's awesome to share your birthday with someone as cool as him. Not to mention he is hot. And boy did he look good on our birthday:) haha. That's all I'll say.
Few(many) drinks later. Me and Amanda end up back at the hotel room smoking butts and watching t.v.
Next day Jeff Smith met us in Portland to take us out to breakfast. For those of you who don't know. He's my sister's "husband" Whatever, I love him, he's awesome and that's all that matters! We had a kickass breakfast at IHOP. I ate chocolate, chocolate chip pancakes. Yum.
After stuffing ourselves Amanda and I headed home because we were beat. Smoking butts, blasting music and singing at the tops of our lungs was all we wanted to do!
Monday night...chilled, fell asleep.
Tuesday morning. First morning without smoking.
Wednesday morning. Second morning without smoking
Thursday morning....7 hours away....third morning without smoking.
Birthday was great. Not smoking is great. I just bought a mountain bike. Paid off my computer. Started school with teachers I actually like! Have lasted 2 days at UMaine without killing anyone or myself.
This year..being 22, is going to kickass.
Bring it on:)
