the big 21

My birthday was fun. Izzy, Lisa, Josh, Jen, and I went to El Caz. We got a pitcher of strawberry margaritas and ate yummy food. They did the Mexican hat thing, which was embarrassing of course. I'm sure they have plenty of pictures to torture me with later. Then us girls went bowling at the Union and watched/made fun of "Ice Princess" at my house. There was nothing good to rent. (Try getting four college girls to agree on something!) It was relaxing, no pressure, just the way I wanted.

Izzy gave me some shot glasses on Sunday. Weiner sent a dozen roses to the office on Tuesday, and Lisa brought 21 red roses. :) Beats the total number of flowers I've received my entire life. And Jen offered to pay for my supper and a movie. Lovely. Didn't hear from CRP at all.

My mom called a dozen times throughout my birthday with updates on my grandfather. He passed away at 10 pm. Funeral is Friday. I went to 'crapolis Tuesday afternoon and stayed the day--answered the phone, got flowers at the door, etc. Then I went to CPR class in the evening. This morning I came home. Did nothing. Well, went window shopping at the mall. Worked out. Installed a three-pronged cord on the back of the four-pronged dryer (Jen did most of the work actually). Watched "O". Went to BR. That kind of stuff. Very nice.
