my birthday.
May. 8th, 2005 02:53 amI had a pretty good birthday after all!
I (kinda) played in one round of the Jorvik blockade in PP, and then Carl and I went to Snappy Dragon, where we got too much food. Oops. Then we went to Math'n'Stuff though, where I got more cool dice, including a d34! :) Then we sat around for a bit, and I cleaned up the place a little more, and then we walked around Greenlake a bit. We went to the bunny hill and looked at the bunny rabbits.
Carl gave me a birthday present of a 7 foot by 7 foot crossword puzzle. I don't actually have a wall in my apartment capable of hanging it up even if I finish it, but we'll see.
We went to Todai, where I had a fun fun fun birthday dinner with a whole buncha people! Katy, Seth, Paul, Llyne, Jack, Chris, Casey, Brian, Brian's brother, and Carl and I all had dinner, and sat around hanging out for a while. I made a "dessert sushi" arrangement which was pretty funny -- I think I ate as much dessert as I did real food, heh. I mostly ended up talking to Casey and Brian during dinner. Afterwards, people came to my apartment and we played board games and stuff. Carl and Seth and Llyne and I played Ticket to Ride, while Katy, Paul, Eli, Jarrett, and Jack played Set and then Ricochet Robot. Then I got out Constructionary, which is this Lego charades game I bought a loooong time ago but never actually played. It had some huge issues with dialects -- like some of us just didn't know some of the words that came out (the west coasters didn't know what a "pencil box" was, and none of us were sure what game "pass the orange" was, and I'd never heard of a "pancake turner" as an item). It was still fun though, I think. Then people just sat around chatting for a while and eventually went home.
wheee, I am old, but it was a pretty good birthday. Thank you all for your fun LJ birthday wishes and whatnot :)
