Sippin' Bacardi wit 50 Cent. I'm halfway there.
To 50, I mean. Now that I'm 25. Twice that would be 50. Cent. Although, as it was pointed out to me, this is actually my 26th year. I had never really thought of that. Weird.
Anyway. I think the birtday festivities have officially ended. I'm still apparently due for some Amazon items from my wishlist (hint hint, Hancock...), but other than that, I think I'm in the clear. Things were still coming until yesterday. Madness. This was probably the most drawn out birthday I've had in years. It kind of started a week early with Jon Stewart, and continued on through for more than a week. Some highlights:
- Jon Stewart. Obvi.
- The awesome pseudo-party at Hamilton that my students and my boss put together for me. Complete with a huge halfmoon cookie. A true Central New York delicacy.
- Driving three and half hours into the snowy depths of Vermont to play miniature golf on Saturday morning. Sad but true.
- Losing at miniature golf, but only because of sabotage on hole 18.
- Hanging out with Osman in Vermont. And managing to avoid having to fix his computer. It was close, though.
- Making multiple people feel really guilty for forgetting my birthday.
- Confusing one person by incorrectly assuming that they were the one who sent me a present.
- And finally, perhaps the greatest gift of all (yes, even moreso than Jon Stewart) was also the tastiest.
Fucking awesome.
