Even though my birthday was a few days ago, I can still bask in the afterglow, right? This year’s birthday was 100x better than last year’s (my 21st). I just felt so much love from everyone this year.
My mom drove 2 1/2 hours down, and just seeing her made me so happy, that it kind of cemented my urge to move back home. But that’s another post.
We ate at Golden Corall, because I had been craving their rolls with honey butter for weeks! We even brought in my presents so I could open them. I had a card from my mom, my mom’s boyfriend, and my grandma. My mom gave me a spice rack and Jessica Seinfeld’s “Deceptively Delicious.”
Then my mom and I rode around, visiting Halloween shops, boot stores (I`m looking for a great pair of cowboy boots), and various malls. It was a great time! I was sad to see her leave. She also bought me a few more things from a couple of stores. We even made a worker at American Eagle take a dress off of a mannequin because it was the only size that fit me!
When I got home, I saw these outside of my door:
I was tickled to death that my roommate had gone out of her way to get my balloons!! It made my day so much better!
I still had some time before I was meeting my friend for sushi, so I took a picture of the cupcakes my mom made me, as well as everything that was bought during the day (barrette devil horns, feathered eye lashes, AE dress, AE belt, Zombie drink label)…
All in all, it was a great day, even with the rainy weather!
