birthday!

That's right, It's my birthday. And to celebrate this annual event, I'm talking to myself over the internet. Yay social life!

But my birthday isn't the only good news. Mother dearest arrived in America a few days ago and just got to Austin TX in the evening. I walked her around downtown and had dinner with her. Out of pure sympathy, she bought me some soap :D

Ok, back to my birthday. I'm planning two parties, one on Thursday and one on Friday. Because I've got two very distinct social circles in Texas; those >21 and those < 21, We're probably going to go downtown on the Thursday evening, then have a house party on the Friday night. This is good timing because I've planned a 10km run on Saturday morning, so I'll have 2 days worth of vodka and beer sloshing around in my stomach for extra energy! I suppose you could technically call that planning, but I only just put up the facebook event, and because it's so short notice and I don't actually have a house to party in, I'm not expecting a huge outcome. But we'll see what happens.

Ok back to my mum. The Saturday after my run, my mum and I are traveling to San Antonio (I remember that name by pronouncing sand - ants - and Oreo's) to see more of Texas. In particular, I plan to see the Alimo - a place where I heard the largest kill streak ever occurred in real life. The inner halo 3 gamer geek that I am gets excited at the thought that a group of people could play real life 'king of the hill' and hold of that many hoards of bad guys for such a long time. Sooo many points!

Ok, back to me. I'm going to be studying for most of my birthday (because I've got a shit tonne of exams to do), but I will be able to celebrate by having an 'egg cake'. I'm going to order 2 egg pancakes, stuff them together, then put carrots through them to make them look like a proper birthday cake! Yay J2! Finally your lack of variety has turned into creativity!

I'm 22 now. Fuck I'm old...
