My Belated Birthday

Sooooo… Turned 33 yesterday, went to the local pub this past Thursday prior to that and had a nice time listening to a band that’s almost Irish. Ceann! They seemed like a pretty funny group in some spots and in others, well, they were there for the free booze and hot little groupies. I had plenty of fun that night and got to bed around midnight in order to get my happy arse up at the ass crack of dawn to go to work. Still, it was a worthwhile night out at the pub! =)

Spent my birthday working my butt off and wishing I could just go home and nap or something. Ugh. I got home, spent about an hour on the phone with my dad and ate cake with the roomie and Adam. Well, the roomie has a name, it’s Val, she’s pretty darn cool as friend’s go and a nifty roomie to have about the house since she’s been keeping herself busy with tidying up and such. Something that I don’t expect, but it’s still nice to come home and find things cleaner than when I left at 6:15 in the morning for work!

Anyhoo, Val made me birthday cake because Adam doesn’t celebrate these kinds of things, but damnitall, Val was gonna bake me a cake and decorate it! Hee-hee. It was all cute with a beaver on top… Mmm…Mmm…Good too! Complete with sparkler candles and homemade butter cream frosting. Throw in the sugar cookie glop biscuits with butter cream frosting and a cool five headed dragon incense holder. The day was complete with various phone calls from family and friends in between all of this. Yay!

So work has been slowly getting better working with the boys and I can’t rightly complain too much about it despite the fact the little bastards haven’t had school in almost two weeks which leaves the youth caregivers like me with a bleeding migraine by the end of the day. They apparently go back to school on Tuesday!!!!!!!!! YEE-HAAH! I was hoping it was Monday, but Tuesday will suffice after having this coming weekend off. *crosses fingers*

Labor Day Weekend, I am hoping will consist of me having it off for a fencing event up near Antioch, Illinois. MKAoD ~Middle Kingson Academy of Defense. It’s a fencing centric event that usually has edumacational klasses, schtick, and good company. Granted, we lost the kick ass camp site that was a peninsula into a small lake that kept the area cool and breezy and made for fantastic parties on Saturday nights. wOOt! Unfortunately, as I said before, the site is no more due to family shenanigans, court battles, and other such nonsense that snuffed out the fun that was MKAoD and Border Skirmishes. S’okay though, MKAoD not built upon the fun parties, it was built upon the aforementioned things it usually features. *sigh* I will miss the old site nonetheless.

Well, that’s my update for now. Other than surviving the stifling weather of Pennsic where it was raining every day and hotter than hell when it wasn’t raining, the company was great. Forgot to mention the misery of heat exhaustion! I stood around for two field battle scenarios and nearly dropped dead on the fencing field! Holy shite! Screw that, I’m so no going if even looks like the weather is going to be that relentless and nasty again. Bah. Gotta scoot now. CIAO BABY!

...So if I die today I'll be the happy phantom
And I'll go wearin' my naughties like a jewel
I'm still an angel to a girl who hates to sin…
