To briefly recap the events of my weekend, my birthday began when I received not one but two birthday cards from Luke. The first was one of those musical cards that played the Star Wars theme that was picked for the music rather than the content. The second was hand-drawn and colored and strangely touching. I was practically welling with tears when I called the little guy, but he couldn't be bothered because he was playing X-Box. I now see why this frustrates the hell out of his great-aunt. I had a half day of work on Friday before my parents and I went to Ruby Tuesdays to spend the free dessert coupon they sent us. I spent the night playing video games with Matt and Will. On Saturday Will threw a party at his house where Matt and I achieved one our life's goals and ordered a Chik Fil A nugget tray. When we went to pick it up the girl working at the register thought she knew someone with my last name and asked if I had a child that went to her high school. I'm not going to go into detail about the party, but I was extremely close to needing to say "Obvious Troll is Obvious" to one of the adults. I'm looking at the June 7th one with a bit of dread now. Finally on Sunday I went to Niki's where I saw her and Angie.

Gift recount:

• CrossworDS from Matt
  
• Branston Pickle and No More Heroes from Will
  
• Rechargeable Wii Batteries from Cricket
  
• Mini Guitar Hero $20, and lunch from Niki and Angie
  
• An Office T-Shirt a book of Carl Jung's Archetypes and Mario Kart Drunk Driving Simulator Wii from my parents

By the way, I got a grand total of 11 Happy Birthday Wall posts (not including Kwon and Nikki's responses to my responses) plus two three belated ones. Matt, I challenge you to find the obvious contradiction in one of them.

Okay, now I am done with the semester. Something didn't submit correctly and I had to rush home from work and submit it again... two days late. Hopefully this isn't a problem.

I strangely pity this little window that I'm typing into. Over the course of two days, I've tried making an entry for keybladerating, a post, a second attempt at the keybladerating thing, and now this. Scott is in DC for training this week so work has been really slow of late so I'm watching old Yugioh episodes.

I'm not doing anything too major for my birthday this week, but Will and I are going to do something for real in early June. And there will be a pretzel tray, and all the pretzels will be mine. All mine!

All this Rutgers crap is done. Done done done. No more Finals, no more post-Final extras. Time to move on to the next thing.

My next thing to do is figure out what I'm doing for my birthday. Going to the movies seem to be the most obvious route, as I have yet to see Iron Man and KUNG FU PANDA comes out this Friday. I'd love to somehow find a time and a place to order trays of food, particularly Philly Pretzels or Chicken Nuggets, instead of the usual restaurant thing but that's looking like it might be tricky to pull off. I'm thinking something easy and small-ish this weekend and then something with a little more substance in the summer.
