My birthday..

[tek2way]

...was actually pretty dang good. Normally, I get VERY depressed and withdraw from folks. That day, I got something like 2-4 LJ comments and 5-7 text messages wishing me a happy birthday. Thank you to each and every one who sent well wishes my way. It did wonders for my normally morose mood. Then, that night, six of my friends took me out to eat. We were going to go to Buffalo Wild Wings, but there was some football game on, and we were told that it'd be a one hour wait. Since the temperature was nice that night, we asked about eating on the patio. They said that we could order food, and sit on the patio, but they wouldn't serve us there.

That's when I realized we were right by an El Porton. The thought of margaritas was all it took. C and I went through a pitcher of margaritas EACH (it was my birthday and, except for New Year's, I hadn't had a drink in months). We had a blast, since we were all real close, long time friends. Going back to C's, disker and his wife presented me with their present: a "cheese" cake. Well, I guess I should link a picture, so you know what I mean. :)


It was a yummy (though terrifically hot!) Habanero-Lime Cheesecake, with white chocolate "Cheese". :)

The only downside to the cake was that they'd had no fresh habaneros, so they used a powdered kind. And THAT wasn't that bad, except for the fact that the red "icing" was made with more. Even disker, he who can handle Dave's Total Insanity with no trouble, said it was HOT. :) The cake itself was rockin' though.

I went to bed (driven home by a sober strieson, bless him), and slept wonderfully.

However, the next morning, I woke up with sinus drainage making my throat hurt. I slept quite a bit, and took it very easy that day. No, I was not hungover, either. I had water before I went to bed.

OH! Sad as it sounds, I was mostly sober when I got home, and hopped online to see how my guild was doing on Moonrunner. They asked if I was interested in running Heroic Hellfire Ramparts. I agreed, and we managed to get through it okay, despite a couple of wipes. I hit Revered with Thrallmar on the run, and got the healing enchant on my hat. Then, as if that wasn't enough, I scored the Raiments of Nature's Breath, which was a nice upgrade for my resto druid's healing set. (You can see all of Eagleheart's gear here. Yes, the name was taken from the Stratovarius song. :) )

Anyway, I survived the rest of Tuesday, getting some much-needed rest. When I woke up today, I felt almost back to normal, though I was tired from waking up every couple of hours last night. The worst part? I had a zombie dream right before I had to get up for work... I *hate* zombies, and this one was zombies running amok in pits located IN my old high school, of which I also have ill memories (nothing drastic.. I just don't like those years).

Work was okay, though I wound up cleaning the computer room upstairs, and it was MESSY. I left the file clerk's desk alone, because that's HER responsibility (and I didn't know what to do with it all). Coming home, I picked up my new key to C's, and am about to begin going through my "unnecessary" things to see what needs to be boxed up to get over there, and what needs to be boxed up for storage over there.

I'm still probably gonna go to bed at a reasonably early hour tonight, too. More sleep = less sick. :)

Isn't it? :) I thought it was great, though I've been afraid to have another piece since. u.u;;

Well Happy Belated Birthday!

I'm a bad friend! =(

No, you're not. Silly. :)

Thank you for the well wishes. It's just another one to add to the massive tally this year. (That total in itself is noteworthy -- I don't usually hear from so many people. It definitely warms my heart, or whatever I have that serves the same function. :) )
