Happy Birthday......

TO ME! Yes, today is my birthday, it's dubbed my magic birthday, cuz I am turning 27 on the 27th today. Since it falls on a monday this year, I decided to celebrate it this weekend. On Saturday night, I went out with my friend Kerry for dinner and drinks, emphasis on drinks. Since I've been working, my drinking has been curtailed to non-existent. So what do you think happens when i drink 6 margatinis at a Mexican restuarant? Yes, the inevitable happened, I got drunk, and she had to walk me up the steps to my house and put me inside, cuz i could barely walk. She laughed with giddiness the whole time, cuz her goal was to get me smashed for my b-day. Props to her for Mission Accomplished. I threw up a couple hours later after getting home, my guess was sometime around 3 am.
Sunday, I awoke without too bad a hangover, but a rash on my face, from i guess an allergic reaction to my drinking binge. Thankfully, it's not too bad, so today at work hopefully I won't get asked too many questions about my face and what happened. The rest of Sunday was spent golfing with some friends of mine from LetsGoKings. I hadn't golfed in ages, probably around the last time I had a drink. My game sucked, but it was fun to get out there for a couple hours and hit the ball around and kick it with great people whom I don't see too often.
Today will be pretty low-key, work, then go out for 1 drink with my friend Amado. My other friend Rachel who lives in Las Vegas, will be coming down this coming weekend and wants to celebrate my b-day then. We shall see what happens. Yesterday was a bit of a somber one, as have been the past couple days before my b-day. It is the birth date of my grandmother, who passed away Sept. 24, 2003. My sister Marie wrote a beautiful tribute to her on her site, expressing many of the same things I feel about my Grandma. You should check it out if you haven't already. Other things have been on my mind, and I may get to them this week. I will be back in circulation now, after a break from blogging. I just needed a break to get into my new job and finish up my tech school, which i did last week. I will share more stories about this and other things over the next few days. So stay tuned! Hope all are well out there and have a Happy Monday, I know I will!
