The Aftermath - Post Birthday

This years birthday is another one for the memory banks. I spent the entire day with my wonderful boyfriend who delt with me dragging him around all day to places he'd normally not venture.


We started out the day with waking up at my place to about a dozen text messages and phone calls of birthday well wishers. He spent much of that time pulling me to him and wishing me a Happy Birthday. I'm fairly certain no one has said Happy Birthday to me that many times in one day. It was super cute.


After finally managing to get up we had coffee and got ready for the day. We drove down the hill to his place and switched cars, then we made our way to Sunflower Drive-In; an all vegetarian almost Vegan natural food restaurant. Now mind you, the Boyfriend is not vegetarian, he is a full on carnivor, so this is not somewhere you will normally find him. However, in honor of my Birthday we bought lunch there and ate it at a nearby park.


After lunch we had time to kill before heading to my parents for ice cream and cake so we drove out to my favorite little metaphysical shop and spent some time browsing for things I probably don't "need." I ended up grabbing some incense, because I was out, and a bag for the runes I'm making and a piece of black onyx -- just because you can never have enough stones.

I went to pay and the Boyfriend beat me to the card - told me I wasn't allowed to pay on my birthday and then have me a cute little smile I always go crazy for.


We left that little shop and walked the downtown area for a little bit, then headed to the car for my parents house. Waiting there was a fun fetti cake with pink fun fetti frosting with green icing for the "happy birthday" part. They sang, and we ate cake and chocolate chip cookie dough ice cream.

After the cake and ice cream the Boyfriend and I went to see Transformers 3: Dark of the Moon. The movie turned out to be really good. Although I must say, I was a little sad to see that Megan Fox was no longer in it... Oh well.

After the movie we headed to On the Border, Mexican Grill and Cantina for Margaritas. If you have an On the Border near you - GO! They have the best tasting Margarita's ever - and bottomless chips and salsa.

The day was perfect, overall, because I got to spend it with The Boyfriend. We could have stayed in bed all day, as long as he was there the day would have been pretty awesome. Now, here's to the rest of the year to come and to all the fun and exciting things I'll do while I'm 23 years old.
