Bonne Fete a Moi!

Oui, c'est mon anniversaire, aujourd'hui!
Translation: Yes, it is my birthday, today!

My Birthday Thus Far....

1) Woke up at approximately 6:30 am to go to my 3-hour Conversational French course. Worked then had to do my French homework last night, so I was running on fumes....

2) Went to a Chinese buffet with a girlfriend.... great food, but, as per the "Rules of Chinese Food", I was hungry again by the time I got home.... ah, well.

3) Blah, Blah, Blah, Blogged for a few minutes....

4) Treated myself to an afternoon nap.... an all-too-rare indulgence, these days.

.... To be continued....

5) Attended a family barbeque. It's quite amusing to see my grandma downing the alcohol.... she's built up quite the tolerance....

6) Secretly wished that my parents hired a maid to clean up my room.... got a headboard for my bed, instead. Ah, well. I needed that, too.

7) Ate chocolate cake AND chocolate ice cream.... quite the delectable combination!

8) Found out that Salt Water Taffy does not, in fact, taste salty.

9) Attempted to be pleasant in a non-air conditioned house, in 32 degree celsius weather (89.6 fahrenheit). Then, got devoured by mosquitos when I tried to beat the heat by going outside to bask in the faint warm breeze. There's really no winning in such a situation.

10) Resigned myself to tackling my French homework in the quasi-coolness of my basement, then heading to bed. No wild birthday celebrations for me.... early morning French course pour moi!
