Happy Birthday to Will today!
He’s 28 today, which used to seem so “old,” but suddenly seems so young!
We went to a family reunion yesterday (because apparently that’s what you have to do when you live in America these days) and afterwards went out for an early birthday dinner to a semi-famous steak restaurant in the City.
I must also mention the fact that I picked up a Key Lime Pie Cheesecake (yes, it deserves capital letters) from the Cheesecake Factory Friday night. Happy Birthday To ME… oh yeah- and Will too.
I also saw that on Wednesday they’re celebrating National Cheesecake Day (because in America not only do you have to attend family reunions, but you also have to celebrate every tiny thing such as Cherry Day and Backwards Day and Drink Coffee All Day Day) by charging $1.50 for a piece of cheesecake!
Hello treadmill!
In other, much less important news, my furniture is arriving this week! I’m so excited. It should be here Wednesday and I’m really forward to having some comforts of my “other home” with me. Oh, and our TV is arriving so Will will be happy. I told Will it was sort of nice not having the TV around for a month, he fully agreed.
not.
Somehow talking isn’t nearly as thrilling as Sportscenter.
Apparently.
We have a TV in our bedroom (which by the way I loathe- TV in a bedroom? Totally Will’s doing), but no cable just yet. We’ve been watching lots of FRIENDS boxsets-
which inevitably has me anazlying which one I would be, who Will would be… who Boz and Lucy would be…
My life is so thrilling.
P is for sure Rachel. Nothing to even ponder.
P says I’m Phoebe, and I really, really hope that’s not true-
but I’m afraid the odds are against me.
I love Phoebe, she makes me laugh- but seriously, P? I can’t be her…
Alright, I’m pretty sure you guys don’t care about this conversation… moving along…
I’m getting ready to drop by one of Will’s old neighbor’s house this afternoon. She’s a great seamstress and is going to get a huge giant tapestry I bought in Kuwait ready to be hanged (hung? Hanged? I’m pretty sure it’s hanged, though it doesn’t sound as nice as hung...). I’m so excited about it. I’d really like to get it up before I leave. I’ll be sure to take a picture for you guys. It’s really beautiful.
Alright ladies- I’m off to meet the Seamstress. Afterwards I think we’re meeting our couplefriend for a birthday dinner.
couplefriend.
I still need to tell you about them, don’t I? I forgot how ready I was to have one of those. I prayed for one for so many months in Kuwait, and now it appears they might be here.
okay okay, I need to get off. Will is badgering me.
Is that what being 28 does to people?
I hope not.
Let me honor my 28 year-old birthday boy and meet this lady.
More to Come…
