What a great birthday!

On Saturday I was at a girlfriends place. We had planned on going out for a bite to eat, but she popped a bottle of Champagne around 6pm and when her man came home he said we had to stay home for fear we would get too rowdy at the restaurant! :) Girls and bubbles… you can never tell what will happen when you combine the two but it’s pretty much guaranteed fun.
After another hour of giggling and telling “remember when” stories, we decide we will just cook dinner. I open her pantry and I swear, this woman must have taken a course on how to live like a bachelor, she’s got Coco Puffs, canned tuna, a Costco size can of tomatoes and a bag of beef jerky. We called her neighbor, a lady who is probably close to 80 yrs old, and I asked if she had any pasta noodles, I said we forgot to pick them up. Truthfully, she must have known we were drunk, but at the time we
thought we could pull it off! She was sweet enough to give us a bag of noodles, and so my birthday dinner that was supposed to be at Ago in LA was still kinda an Italian theme…we had a champagne and spaghetti feast.
What a great night, we laughed and tried to watch a movie, but both passed out pretty soon after it started I think. Her man through blankets over us in the living room - I think he figured it would be too much work to mover her, and the next morning he was up making X-tra strong coffee with a bottle of Tylenol on the kitchen table :) Great friends !
Sunday I spent a couple hours shopping and then came home to a huge list of emails and MySpace messages with birthday wishes and greetings. Even though I never make a big deal about the day, it’s always so nice to be remembered,. I get to talk to a lot of people all over the world because of my website, its really fun to know I have friends in almost every country who dropped me a note just to make me smile - THANK YOU !!
