birthday report - updated

Saturday was my 35th birthday. Thanks to all of you that wished me happy birthday via Facebook, the phone, or in person.

I had a really good day. It started with a non-birthday related tech training meeting at St. Awesome's. The meeting was made infinitely better than it would have been by Mary Jenkins making me a dish of sopapila and hand delivering it (in spite of the fact it was also her daughter Isabel's birthday). Thanks Mary. It was delicious. I can't believe I left you out the first time. I am the worst person alive. From there Sara and I met my family for lunch. Zach and Nicholas gave me the Family Guy Star Wars movie. Mom and Dad gave me cold hard cash. Both were greatly appreciated - as was lunch.

After lunch Sara and I ran some errands then she gave me my gifts: A kick-ass pair of boots, some kitchen tools, a totally awesome set of Bose over-the-ear headphones, and the newest Mountain Goats album, Heretic Pride. I'm listening to it now, as I write this. It's really good.

Later that night we headed out to the back room at Miyako for a joint-birthday dinner with the Colonel (who's birthday was yesterday). I had a really good time and really appreciated the presence of my friends, their well-wishes, and the gifts. I also really appreciated Amy Gilmore and Mike Turner trying sushi for the first time. There was only a 50% enjoyment rate, I'm sorry to announce.

Hooray for birthdays! Freddy and Clark: Advocates of peace and rock respectively.
Mike tries sushi for the first time.  Does not like it. GG, Bryan, and the Colonel
Seconds later it all slid off onto the table and he cried.  Okay, not really. Amy, Mary, Adam, and Lucy
Amy, Sarah, and Kup He oiled the grill so fast he became a blur.
