it's been a good one

there many good things about today and i've been in generally good spirits too. the weather was perfectly cloudy with a smattering of rain. i got to work late this morning due to a late night playing spore but my dad was cool with it because it was in fact my birthday, and you're allowed to be late to work on your birthday, his words.

dinner was great, sushi, edamame, fuji chicken, half of a sapporo and a squatters india pale ale at the happy sumo. so filling, so good. and pie and presents, my brother jeff gave me a miley cyrus tshirt from when he went with his girls to see her at the fourth of july, stadium of fire where she performed, they all think it's real funny that i lke her music. my sister julie unaware of jeff's gift also gave me a gag gift of hannah montannna pens with a discount double feature dvd, the tell-tale heart and a wes craven's chiller, in a hannah montanna gift bag no less. jaime and nick gave me 23 dollars for my twenty third birthday and i got to open those beach boys records my mom bought for me. i cant wait to listen to all of them but it will have to wait till morning since it's late and i'm tired.

my parents and i also watched the premier of fringe tonight, i've been anticipating it since i heard about it during lost season 4, it's going to be the next best tv show after lost i'm sure.

tomorrow i'm leaving for vegas with my parents to get some cars from two of the auto auctions down there. should be fun, i'm gonna play spore the whole way there and driving cars back nets me a little extra on my next paycheck. we do the vegas thing pretty often, it's nice to get out of town once in a while.

so all in all it's been a good one, another year older.
