Happy birthday, me!

Well, I'm 23 today. Feels like any other day, naturally. I'm going out for dinner with family tonight, for Chinese food. Besides that, I'm not doing anything for my birthday, which is a bit of a departure from last year in Waterloo. I think I just sort of give up on my friends here; everyone always seems to be too busy to bother.

I went to the mall with Chanel the other day. It's always fun hanging out with her. I wound up buying some pants, but I feel sort of ripped off. I bought a pair of jeans that were 2 for $50, and I bought a pair of jean shorts that were 2 for $50, but the guy said I had to pay full price for both since they were in different sections. What the hell store has that policy??? Well, I paid full price, but I think International Clothiers has lost a customer.

Games night the other night was a bit sparse. Only three people showed up. Mind you, that was still enough for a game of euchre, Ticket to Ride, and High Society. It also gave me a chance to break in the new table. Wouldn't you know it, the first night I use the table, someone goes and spills cream soda on it! You know, that bright pink stuff. Luckily it came out really well and there's no stain at all, but I'm glad the table is built in a way so that I can replace the felt if that happens again. Everyone's been giving my table rave reviews.

I went to a BBQ at Sandy's camp last Friday, and another at Chris' house on Sunday night. Good times, though it was a bit cold on Sunday. I went to Chris' house with the intention of not having much to eat since I had eaten not too long before I went there, but I pounded back something like three hot dogs and a burger. They were delicious.

Chris showed off his R4 flash card for his DS the other day, and I was mighty impressed. Even if I don't pirate any games (ha, yeah right), it would be really convenient just to have all my games on one cartridge. It will only set me back $70 (+s/h), which is not that much in the grand scheme of things, for all the "things" it will let me do.
