Birthday Fun

Some people dread birthdays. I am not one of those people. I think it's a day for celebration. Another year older and wiser.

My coworkers were awesome and brought cookies and treats.

My parents sent me a cute wallet and Adam got me an awesome book. Anyone not familiar with Frank Warren and his Post Secret Project needs to check out his website. Every Sunday he posts a whole new set of secrets from people all around the country which I find inspiring, sad, and funny - sometimes all at the same time.


Adam had planned a celebratory dinner at a local Italian restaurant. When we got there it was pretty quiet. Just us and a guy playing live jazz music. I know it was supposed to play into the ambiance of the restaurant, but I couldn't help but giggle and think of the scene with the jazz flute from Anchorman. (Click here and fast forward to the 1:15 mark.) The food was amazing, and so was my company.

After that was Husker football - strange for a Thursday. I think they planned it just for me. The game didn't start until late and I struggled to stay awake towards the end. The only reason I knew we scored was when Adam cheered. I tried to pretend that I was still awake and paying attention, but I don't think I was too convincing.

It was a great day and I want to say THANK YOU to everyone who made it so special.
